    A weather app (?) has mysteriously appeared in my notification area. Apart from it showing Sheffield 80 miles away I would just like to get rid of it. How?

    :)

    Hi,

    Upon checking, the icon that you want on the notification area is from a third party program. Microsoft has a Weather app, however, no icon will be displayed on the notification area.

    Regards.

    Thank you, Eeshwar, for your reply and feedback. However, I was only looking to add a Weather App in the Notification Area. It would be nice if Microsoft would allow more apps to be added to this area.

    Weather app in notification area

    I have exactly the same but the icon, weather is showing location Rotherham, I live in Somerset!
    No settings except exit.
    Could be a handy icon if I knew where to change the location.
    Other than this post I cannot find any info on this.

    I have 2 Windows 10 machines and the other doesn't have this.

    Hi

    I just typed Weather in search and then changed the default location in the app.

    Regards

    This icon is not the weather icon that appears as a tile in the start menu (which I can change the location of) It is a icon attached to the notification area next to the system clock.
    I think I would be useful if I was able to control the location otherwise I will just exit it and turn it off (which is the only control I seem to have)

    Have you set your device location in Settings>Privacy>Location?

    Location settings are on.
    I have now exited the icon, so no way to re enable it as I don't know where it is or what it is called.
    I will reboot and see if reappears.

    Have a look in task manager and switch to the startup tab at the top
    check in that list to see if anything weather related

    is it possible for you to do a screen image of the icon (snipping tool if it is a default install in windows and available)

    might jog someones memory if they have seen it before

    Do you have any weather related apps listed under Notifications & Action settings | Show Notifications from these apps? How about if you click the Turn system icons on or off? How about under Select which icons appear on the taskbar?
