    Task View suddenly only shows current day's activities


    I used to be able to click Task View and see activity for the last 30 days. Now I can see only the present day's activities. My PC just upgraded to Windows 2004. Does that have something to do with it and how can I change settings to see the last 30 days? Thank you in advance for any help.

    :)

  2. Task view not showing most of my activities.

    Hi,



    Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.



    I understand that you are facing issues while checking the task view for activities on your PC.



    Ideally, if you have logged in with your Microsoft account you will be able to see the activity history of 30 days. If you have logged in with your Microsoft account and you are still not able to see the activity list, you can check if the activity
    history is enable to save on the device.



    1. Go to Settings > Privacy >
      Activity History.
    2. On the right hand side check the box next to
      Store my activity history on this device
      .


    You can also check all the activities performed on a particular day, to do so follow the steps.



    1. Click on the Timeline icon on the taskbar.
    2. Scroll down to the day for which you want to check the activity.
    3. Now click on show all activities next to the
      day/date.


    Regards,

    Task View now shows only the current day's windows

    Both check boxes are checked in Activity History.

    I'm running 1803 (OS Build 17134.286)

    I used to have my timeline showing activities till the beginning of time ;-) - the time of update release (I updated the same day).
