In the upper right-hand corner of my Edge page, the prompt "Switch to a new look" appears. I do not like nor want the new look. I turned the toggle off, but my Weather icon no longer appears. The "Solution" tells me to go to "Appearances" and turn of the toggle "Try the new look and feel of Microsoft Edge"; however, this toggle does not exist under "Appearances" in settings. All I want to do is regain my weather icon and keep the previous version of Edge.
How do I get my Weather icon back? I wish Microsoft would stop forcing these changes.

I am having the same issue as Steven! Weather info appears for about 1 second and is then replaced with the 'Switch to new layout' option. Nothing I have been able to find online has helped rectify this issue. Come on Microsoft...there must be a way to solve this issue? All I want is my weather update back! I don't want to 'Switch' to anything. Just put things back the way they were or simply give us a yes/no option on the 'Switch' option and once we select 'NO' put the weather back. Neil
Thanks for your response. I was just informed that my comment above is "under moderation" review by Microsoft for possibly violating guidelines. Really? Why not just return the weather icon and users would not be frustrated. If they can moderate that comment, they can return the weather icon.

Three of your posts were essentially duplicates. Two of those were deleted.

Hi,
Did you enable weather using the Gear icon?
I’m eager to hear back and work together to find a solution.
Yes, I have it set as "on" just as you show in this display, but the weather icon will not appear. This is maddening. Thanks for checking. No solutions yet.

I have had the weather icon enabled throughout this process; that was one of the first things I checked. Since my first post, the weather icon returned and now it is gone again. I am getting tired of the "Switch to a new Look" prompt, but Microsoft keeps it there all the time. Thanks for trying to help.
I tried all the "AI" suggested answers, but the icon still does not appear. I always had the icon until the latest Windows Update. Then I lost it. This is a Microsoft problem. I did not change my settings.
Thanks.
If you clear all browsing data including cookies and cache, from edge://settings/privacy/clearBrowsingData, does it help?
I tried this several times and restarted Edge and nothing happens. No weather icon.
I tried this; still the weather icon does not appear, only "try a new look."
I have the weather enabled in settings but the weather icon will not appear. Only "try a new look."
The Weather icon reappeared and has again disappeared on my Edge page since I first posted on this issue. I have tried all the suggestions. None of them work. I have had the weather icon enabled throughout this process. What I see now is "Switch to a new Look," which is constant. I am not interested in the "new look." Do any of the Microsoft support people out there have an explanation? My sense is that the disappearing weather icon is deliberate in an attempt to coax users to get the "new look." It is a minor issue but increasingly annoying.
