Thanks FreeBooter. I'll give that a try. Jim.

Hi Ghot. Thanks for your reply. I foolishly used Windows Update to move from Win 10 to 11 on one of our pc's - took an eternity. When we got to Win 11 several things didn't work (Win Updates/Defender/Explorer etc). We tried a repair install of the now Win 11 using the ISO but struck the language...

I recently tried to reinstall Windows 11 23H2 using the ISO after upgrading from Win 10. When I got to the stage of saying what to keep, I was unable to keep apps and programs due to the OS language being different to the ISO download. The display language is English UK as are all the other...

Hi Glasskuter & Ghot. I hadn't seen these popups for a while but since Edge version 123 and the subsequent updates to this, there's been a rash of them. Today's popups have even removed the close box X and the only options are Confirm or Not Now. Seems they can't take No for a answer. Chrome is...

Thanks HDMI. I'll give that a try next time. Markw51, I understand about using a Dell utility (Update or Supportassist) to install BIOS updates and i agree Dell Update is preferable to Supportassist or Windows Update, however, I fell foul of a faulty BIOS update on the Drivers and Downloads page...

On our 3 Dell laptop/desktop pcs, it is Dell Update or Supportassist which updates BIOS - I don't use Supportassist due to it's current problems. Almost always, Windows Update will install a Firmware Update, (for the same BIOS version) around 2 weeks later when you "Check For Updates" . Dell has...

Hi. I've just updated Edge to the latest version (123.0.2420.53). On restarting the browser a message urging me to make Edge my default browser - my default browser is currently Chrome appears. The options shown are Confirm ( to change default) or Set Later, which I don't want to do. If I simply...

I did a clean install of a Dell Inspiron 5400 a few weeks ago with an 11th Gen Intel Processor. The SATA configuration was preset to Raid. Dell instructed me to change from Raid to AHCI in BIOS, save and exit, while rebooting hit F12 to access the 1 time boot menu, delete every partition that...

Hi all. Yes just checked and it has returned. @number40Fan said there was a delay in when the weather toggle was removed and when it returned. Hopefully the next Edge/Windows update won't remove it again.

Just checked the Microsoft Community Forum and apparently the removal of the "Show Weather" toggle is intentional and not a regional thing. https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoftedge/forum/all/how-to-remove-weather-from-microsoft-edge-windows/ee355c1f-c66a-4a48-baa2-7ccd8fc5657d Seems...

Checked it again and it shows my location to within 3 or 4 miles. Must be regional. I'm also wondering if the removal of the weather toggle is regional too. Really shouldn't be. We have Firefox installed so we'll just park Edge and see if the toggle reappears. Thanks again for your help.

Hi @Winuser. Thanks for replying. Yes, this is the page. The weather shows in the top left corner. When you click on it, it shows the location. Maybe this is a region thing. I'm in the Uk so maybe it's different in the US? As Fabler2 said before, it's more of a security concern and shouldn't be...

Hi @Winuser . Had a look at MSN. Still shows weather at the top. I assume since this has happened to all 4 PC's this is intentional since the last cumulative update. The latest Edge update hasn't changed the setting. Edge is set to open a new tab and I assume it's getting the location from our...

Seems to be catching. The first time is was just one Windows 10 pc,now all of our 4 machines, 2 Windows 10 and 2 Windows 11 have this weather thing with no off toggle. All set to open to a New Tab. It must be something in the March Cumulative Updates as wasn't there beforehand. The latest Edge...

Same thing here. I also did the repairs to the Edge and Edge WebView2 Runtime apps and still no Turn Off weather toggle. I'm almost sure the weather wasn't showing yesterday before installing the Cumulative Update for March - this is a Windows 10 laptop. I can only assume that the update has...
