    1. Enter "news" in the search and you will find "Hover to open news and interests from the taskbar", click Open.

    Hello Saba Aslam，

    Glad to hear from you, if so, this may be an option disabled by the administrator and you can contact the administrator to help you.

    Hello Saba Aslam，

    Your taskbar settings are all grayed out and the button cannot be turned on, right?

    If so, this may be caused by a corrupted system file.

    Please use the following command to scan and repair your system.

    Press Windows Logo + X at the same time to start Windows PowerShell (Administrator) and execute the following commands separately, make sure to execute the next command after the previous one is finished, restart the computer after execution to confirm.

    DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /ScanHealth

DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /CheckHealth

DISM /Online /Cleanup-image /RestoreHealth

SFC /scannow

    If the above command does not fix it, please switch to another account and log in to see. If you do not have another account under your system please try to create a new local administrator account.

    If you don't have this problem under other accounts, it may be a problem with your original user profile, you can refer to the following link to fix a corrupt user profile in Windows.
