Beep boop - this is a robot. A new show has been posted to TWiT…
What are your thoughts about today’s show? We’d love to hear from you!
I just got the new News and Interests taskbar feature. You can right click on the taskbar to disable it if you don’t like it. There is also a Group Policy to disable it for the entire PC. You can run gpedit.msc with elevation and it’s under
Local Computer Policy/
Computer Configuration/
Administrative Templates/
Windows Components/
News and interests
set Enable news and interests on the taskbar to Disabled
Here’s a picture of what it looked like before I gave it the axe.
Also note that disabling it in group policy removes it if active, and removes the entry in the pop-up menu that controls it.
