You can easily remove the news and weather widget from your Windows 11 taskbar and put it back only when you want it, but the process of doing so isn't self-evident.

If widgets aren't your thing, it's possible to hide the feature or stop it from running on a Windows 11 PC entirely. Here's how to make the change.

A new Insider build of Windows 11 shows improved information widgets on the lock screen and adds a new option to pin apps to the taskbar.

Microsoft's latest widget-related addition to Windows 11 is the ability to pin the widget board to the taskbar and display it there permanently on top of everything else.

Microsoft is testing out a new location for the weather button on the Windows 11 Taskbar. The new position places the weather button next to the system tray when the Taskbar is left-aligned.
