Few months ago, Microsoft rolled out the Windows 11 operating system with a new widgets panel that carries various types of cards and information such as news, weather and more. Currently, the OS does not support third-party widgets and it also does not allow users to pin widgets on the desktop. Now, as per a report by WindowsLatest, the company is planning to make a few big changes to its widgets features with the upcoming updates.
According to the report, Microsoft is planning to add support for third-party widgets in Windows 11 version 22H2. Support for third-party widgets was first introduced by the compaat with the launch of Windows Vista in 2007 and later the support was also added to the Windows 7. The report by WindowsLatest further mentions that the support for third-party widgets will also allow users to customise the widget panel as per their liking.
The report also reveals that no APIs related to third-party widgets were spotted in the current preview or stable builds of the operating system. This means that the initial preview of the upcoming feature is still a few weeks or months away.
Last month, Microsoft added new features and improvements to the Start menu and taskbar. With the latest build, users can right-click on Start to quickly access Start settings and choose the “More pins” or “More recommendations” layout option to show an extra row of either pins or recommendations, respectively.
If a secondary monitor is connected, clock and date will now also be displayed on the taskbars of the secondary monitor or monitors after the update. Earlier, the clock and date were only visible on the primary monitors. According to the company, the change isn’t available to all Insiders just yet as it plans to monitor feedback and see how it lands before pushing it out to everyone.
