    News and Interests Widget - turn off News Card?


    I'm intrigued by the "News and Interests" widget that's appeared in Windows 10, but I'm looking for help controlling it. It seems I can toggle on/off many of the "cards" - weather, sports, traffic - but not the "news feed". That's the only one I *DONT* want - I'm not interested in MSFT or anyone else serving me up their choice of "info", but I can't seem to stop that card without shutting off the whole widget. I'd like to get the weather, traffic, and perhaps the sports, but I don't want to be confronted with blaring headlines. Is there a way to just get the other cards I do want without th

  2. Does News and Interests widget require MS News and Weather apps?

    I have a laptop that doesn't have the Microsoft News or Weather app preinstalled. After installing some Windows updates, I saw that I had the "News and interests" option in the task bar. I have it turned on but the widget hasn't shown up. Turning it off then on again didn't help. Does that widget require the MS News and Weather apps in order to function?

    On another PC, I have no issues with that widget appearing but that one has had the News and Weather apps installed before the widget was released.

  3. Does News and Interests widget require MS News and Weather apps?

    Well, I can confirm that installing the MSN Weather app had no effect on making the News and Interests widget show up. If anyone has any ideas on how to make it show up, that'd be great!

    List of New apps/Widgets on N97 new firmware v20?

    Dear all,

    Since the new N97 v20 firmware update is out for some product codes, I would really appreciate if those who updated to list the new applications / widgets available on the new firmware. Are they installed on "c:"? Are these new apps/widgets available
    on Ovi? Also, did they update the previous apps/widgets? If yes, which ones?

    Thanks...
