In Mexico, the official regulation (NOM-008-SCFI-1993, and NOM-008-SCFI-2002) set the decimal sign is as in the IS; however, in 2009 both the comma and the point were declared valid. Unfortunately, these kind of regulations are not mandatory, and people use the other notation in daily use, or as in the examples by [email protected]

These countries use the 12-hour format, so this default setting is incorrect. While you can change the clock format in the Date and Time Settings regardless of the current Regional Format, the clock in the Login Screen, the Guest Session, and any newly made User Account will use the default clock format (which is the 24-hour format in this case). In addition, I think it's worth mentioning that Valve's Steam gaming software is affected by this issue. Steam uses an "In-Game Overlay" that can display the current time to the user while playing a game. However, this Overlay clock uses the default clock format (again, this being the 24-hour format), even if the clock format for the current user is set to the 12-hour format.
