I do like the way you worded "2. USE backup software, and spend a few hours randomly guessing how to do things. .... (if you break something, just restore from a backup, and try something different)." Once said, "do it right or do it again. I have successfully (?) uninstalled the WWEP!!!! It...

Fully backed up this morning about a separate issue, which I haven't been able to start yet:-). The folder that you pointed to indicates that I don't have access and the built in procedure to gain the access, I haven't been able to navigate/understand properly.... Unsure why I as the admin do...

Unsure if it matters but I do not run Windows logged in to the Microsoft Account.

I found mine under Task Manager > Details. Going to try a few more thing!!!! Finger's crossed!

Hello, I do not use all of the features you've mentioned. So if I could get that to work, it would probably solve my wish. So far I have not been able to uninstall the WWEP properly. Following the tutorial provided here, it did not wipe it out. It reappeared the one time I thought the...

Howdy Ghot, just to make sure I am on the same page as you are, is your system still running WidgitService.exe ???

:-)

Hello and thanks! My intention was to eliminate the processes forever (if this is possible). Quite often turning the computer off and on. As an extra benefit, today the widgit was back in my admin account and functioning................!!

Hoping for assistance in slightly more understanding of the issue and its resolution with the system tools. Who know? Hanging in!

Thanks Ghot, I will start a new thread on the problem of removing the window web experience package from the tutorials. BTW 22H2 (OS Build 22621.3155) is the current build and I am afraid to upgrade to 23H2 with all it's overhead!

Thank you kindly Ghot, understood and your guidance has been indispensable. Have been trying to par down programs and that is why I haven't added Revo back to my system, yet. Will give the tutorials a bit more time before I follow your advice on that program. Sorry I am sure my terminology is...

It still has the tray icon and when I click it, it pops appearing fully functional weather, news etc.
