Windows 10: Windows 10 new taskbar widget

Hi,I've updated to the latest windows and one of the new features is the taskbar widget. I have two questions:1. I am wondering if there is anyway to turn off all the news except to show stock market watchlist only.2. The default widget shows a weather icon only or icon/text on the taskbar. Can that be customized to show something else, like a specific stock price.Thanks in advance.Tim

Windows 10’s taskbar is getting a big update with new weather and news widget - The Verge
To disable the taskbar news widget, use these steps:

• Right-click the taskbar on Windows 10.
• Select the News and interests menu and choose the Hidden option. Disable taskbar News and Interests.
• (Optional) Select the Show icon only option if you want to keep the widget using less space in the taskbar.

I don't know if it works

Pressing “Windows+Pause Break” (it’s up there next to scroll lock) opens the “System” Window.

Windows 10: In the new version of Windows, Explorer has a section called Quick Access. This includes your frequent folders and recent files. Explorer defaults to opening this page when you open a new window. If you’d rather open the usual This PC, with links to your drives and library folders, follow these steps:

• Open a new Explorer window.
• Click View in the ribbon.
• Click Options.
• Under General, next to “Open File Explorer to:” choose “This PC.”
• Click OK
