With Top aligned taskbar, the widget will only show in "Left Aligned" or "Left start button and center aligned taskbar buttons."

I don't believe it will show at all on the vertical taskbar.

Here is the information requested:

Screenshot

Missing wea ther widget

Edition    Windows 11 Pro
Version    24H2
Installed on    ‎10/‎07/‎2024
OS build    26100.2894
Serial number    PF3RQCXZ
Experience    Windows Feature Experience Pack 1000.26100.36.0

As pelaird indicated, I was able to confirm that the weather widget that also shows the local news, is only shown when I choose the left aligned icons on the task bar. It does not show in any other taskbar configuration.

Also, I can inform that the weather widget, as the screenshot shows, disappears at times.
The only way to get it back, so far, is to select some other icon configuration (center aligned, left aligned start button with center icons) and then select the left aligned option again.

I believe this is known behavior on the Taskbar Widget when you have Start11 taskbar enhance turn on. However, I have forwarded your problem/question to Stardock Support Team for their assistance. Please keep an eye on this thread for any updates. We appreciate your feedback and patience.
