Hide or Disable News in Windows 11 Widgets
This article provides instructions on how to hide the Microsoft Start News in the Windows 11 Widgets Board
Microsoft promised last year that you would be able to hide the feed from the Windows 11 Widgets Board. Keeping this promise, Microsoft has now rolled out an option in the Widgets in order to hide the News Feed.
Here is how to disable News Feed in the Widgets Board
To disable the News Feed, see the steps below.
- Open the Widgets Board, either by Win+W keys or clicking the icon on the left of the Taskbar.
- Click the gear icon on the top right to open Settings.
- Open Show or Hide Feeds menu item.
- Turn off the slider titled ” Microsoft Start”
- Close the Widgets Board.
To conclude, these steps can help you disable News Feed in the Widgets Board in Windows 11. Please do note that this option is only available with Windows 11 23H2 update, with the february update installed at least. More about the update is explained in this Blog post, which I wrote earlier.
