This tutorial will show you how to manually refresh the content of all Widgets for your account in Windows 11.

Widgets are small cards that display dynamic content from your favorite apps and services on your Windows desktop. They appear on the widgets board, where you can discover, pin, unpin, arrange, resize, and customize widgets to reflect your interests. Your widgets board is optimized to show relevant widgets and personalized content based on your usage.

The content on widgets will automatically update, but you can manually refresh widgets on demand to force an update to the content if needed.
