Windows 11 is bringing you more live content on your taskbar. This change allows users to see live updates from other widgets such as sports, finance, and breaking news. Their taskbar should show the weather widget most of the time, but when something important happens related to one of their other widgets, they may see an announcement from that widget on their taskbar.


At this time, Widget notifications cannot be turned off. Microsoft is constantly listening and learning, and welcomes customer feedback that helps shape Windows.


When will this happen:
This feature is available starting August 4, 2022.


Note: If users have the latest version of Windows but still don’t see all widgets features, it may be because some features are being rolled out to customers over several weeks and aren't available to all customers at once
