Each to their own, but there are a lot of things on the taskbar that really do not need to be on it, even in the name of efficiency & having as few clicks needed as possible.

IF refreshing it does not change the behavior... My question is, does it behave & display properly on your non-Insider Windows 10? And, btw, they will not look the same. On 20H2 it will have 2 columns & it will have Manage Interests at the top-right corner. As long as it is ok on your regular Win10, don't sweat too much the weird things one may have in betas. Probably will be fine for you in the next Insider Build Cheers, Drew ![](https://learn-attachment.microsoft.com/api/attachments/57f17de4-0b52-49c4-9a61-855dc522c0bc?platform=QnA

Looking at yor taskbar you need to use the Hidden ^ area on your taskbar so you have some room for other icons. Like USB removal, Security, Bluetooth, Mail. Hi Lawrence, For once I agree with you. lol We all have our own preferences , personally like to keep my tray nearly empty with commonly used programs pinned to taskbar. I really find the weather displayed with N&I handy. Still playing around with the popup settings to see if I have any use for updated news items. Normally first thing I do is read up on all the news in browser anyhow. Regards,
