This tutorial will show you how to switch between dashboards in Widgets for your account in Windows 11.

Widgets in Windows are interactive elements that display dynamic content and provide quick access to various apps and features. You can view your location's current weather conditions directly on the taskbar and hover over the icon to see concise, scannable information on topics like sports, stocks, local news, and breaking headlines. Widgets are designed to help you staying informed and organized by presenting personalized information at a glance.

Widgets are displayed on the Widgets board, which contains a collection of cards, each representing a widget with relevant information and actions related to an app. On the Widgets board you can discover, pin, unpin, arrange, resize, and customize widgets to reflect your interests.

Starting with Windows 11 build 2610.5074 (24H2), multiple dashboards are now available in your Widgets Board. This gives you more space for your favorite widgets and helps you stay informed with a feed that connects you to current events. A new navigation bar on the left side makes it easy to switch between your widget’s dashboard and other views like the Discover feed. After initial launch in the EEA, these updates are expanding to all regions.

Reference:



Here's How:

1 Open Widgets (Win+W).

2 In the left navigation bar, perform an action below you want: (see screenshots below)
  • Click/tap on the Widgets button to switch to the "My Widgets" dashboard for a full widgets only experience from your favorite apps and services.
  • Click/tap on the Discover button to switch between other integrated dashboards (news feeds) like Copilot Discover, or Discover, Watch, and Play.

You can also get the new widget board if you enable the removable widgets in lock screen with:
vivetool /enable /id:50179255,53672489
I actually prefer the old widget board.
