How to disable stock price information on the taskbar in Windows 11

The widget icon for Windows 11 is highlighted on the Windows 11 taskbar. Except for the only icon that appears on the left side of the taskbar, all other icons (including the Start button) are centered by default. Widget icons will appear next to other icons only when the taskbar's alignment is changed to the left.

The widget icon can display two types of information such as weather and stock prices, which is the default setting. Not all Windows 11 users need stock price information, and those who don't may want to hide stock market information so that weather reports are always displayed.

#This guide will tell you how to disable stock price information in Windows 11 taskbar widgets. Weather and stock price information are powered by individual widgets.

The display of the widget in the main widget interface determines whether information is also displayed on the icon. In other words: if you disable the Stock Market Watch List widget in the widget interface, you will also disable the stock price information displayed by the taskbar icon.

Microsoft may add other data to the taskbar icon in subsequent development stages, so please note. The company seems to have been working on widgets. Recently, it removed the Microsoft account requirement and announced that users will soon be able to get rid of MSN News feeds entirely.

Remove the Watchlist Mover widget

Here are the steps required to disable stock information on the Windows 11 taskbar:

1. Click the widget icon to display the full Windows 11 widget interface.
2. Find the watchlist mover element in the interface.
3. Activate the three-dot icon next to it to display its context menu.
4. Select the Unpin Widget option from the context menu; this will remove the widget from the main interface.

#While you might think that’s all that’s needed, that’s not the case. For unknown reasons, Microsoft is adding a smaller watchlist mover widget to the interface whenever the user chooses to unpin the larger widget. This needs to be done again in a smaller control so that the Windows 11 taskbar no longer displays stock market information.

1. The smaller watchlist mover widget is found within the main widget interface.
2. Activate the three-dot icon next to it.
3. Select "Hide this widget" from the list of options.

#This will cause the Watchlist Mover widget to be removed from Widgets for Windows 11. Therefore, the taskbar icon should no longer display stock market information.

Windows 11 users who want to restore the display of watchlist information on the taskbar need to activate the plus sign icon in the widget interface and then activate the plus sign icon next to the watchlist widget configuration screen to add the stock market widget again part.

Windows 11 users can also remove the entire widget icon from the taskbar by right-clicking an empty spot on the taskbar, selecting Taskbar Settings from the menu that opens, and changing the Widget icon under Taskbar Items The widget switches to the off state.
