Widget feature missing in Windows 11

Hello,

it seems that "Widgets" feature hadn't been properly installed with Windows 11 for me, because there is no option to add it to the taskbar and Win+W keys doesn't work.

I already tried re-registering apps using powershell, without results.

Do you have any idea how to fix this?

    I have exactly the same problem: When I click on the Widgets Icon, the cursor changes to a spinning blue circle for a second or two , and then nothing happens.

    I have a similar problem with the "Teams " Icon. There it asks to come back later to configure the button.

    running Windows Pro version 22000.71

    I already tried that, i was dev channel but at first i was in the third group, later switched. Perhaps that caused the store not to come over. in .65 i do see that new store.

    I am using a hotmail account for the account as well as for the insider program. With the release 22000.51 the panel actually acted different vs the new 22000.65 release. .51 brought me to the settings window where it showed nothing related to widgets. The .65 show a slight different panel with different text. I do get a login screen but after putting in credentials it doesnt respond anymore and crashes each and every time.

    Another note, with .51 i still had the old Microsoft Store, now with ,65 i do see the new Mircosoft Store.

    The MS store was update in 22000.51, if you used the command to get updates.

    As for the sign in screen for the widgets it looks normal, I have no idea why it crashes on your machine.

    Only problems I've seen so far were due to the display adapter drivers.
