This tutorial explains how to automatically add date and time to the title bar of an active window. This can be pretty useful when you have to capture the screenshot of an active window along with date and time mentioned on it.

Fortunately, there is a free software, named Title Time, which helps to automatically show date as well as the time to title bar of almost any active window, except web browsers. Whether you want to see date and time in the title bar of an image editor, like Paint.net, Notepad, or in the folder window, etc., this software is great for this purpose.
