Windows 11 GPO

[chekmate1984]

Hi all

We have been deploying windows 11 to manchines and noticed few things that worked in windows 10 doesnt work in windows 11

 

1) Users unable to right click task bar

2) The icon on left tha shows weather, ftse, and when click shows news etc

 

Anyone tried to remove the above via gpo? I have gone through gpo but just cant locate!

Have you updated your ADMX files?

right click taskbar I have had no issue with. We dont copy anything to local machine and we have updated our central ADMX. we are migrating our GPO to intune (about 80% there) so our taskbar and start menu modifications are intune policy now. This means scripts, im not sure which one of these gets rid of the icons but its one of them, it also removes it from the lockscreen too.
