Calendar events disappeared from taskbar in Windows 11 insider build
I am on the following windows build:
Edition Windows 11 Home Single Language
Version 21H2
Installed on 24/07/2021
OS build 22000.100
Experience Windows Feature Experience Pack 421.18901.0.3
In Windows 10, the taskbar calendar used to show events of the day. That has disappeared in Windows 11. Is there a way to enable this?

- GHovhannesCopper ContributorI find this feature convenient, and I don't know how they decided to remove it. They have all the metrics and data analysis to see what they have to bring to the end-users. Not professional on their part.

Ubuntu gets this right, and you can move the taskbar anywhere you want. C'mon, Microsoft, level up your game!

kishorehari This doesn't even make sense. I thought there would be a fix to this. And yes, I do have the calendar on the taskbar, but that's pretty annoying to have to do that rather than keep what was working for years in the first place. Hey, Microsoft. Are you listening?

kishorehari I cant understand why something so basic, so simple, has been withdrawn. (By the way, I really am hopeless with using some things on a computer). Another thing: on the bottom right of the taskbar the time and date are displayed. That's helpful. If you hover the cursor over it, you get the date in the same format as displayed. Why? you just saw it without doing anything. So you left click it, now you get the month with the day's name and months name spelt out above, with the date in numbers, example: Wednesday 16 March. If you left click a date, it puts a circle round it. that's all. you can only have one date circled. Seems to me its almost useless.

kishorehari Go to Start -> search for 'Calendar' app -> pin it to the taskbar
In this way, you can easily access the windows calendar with all the events and other details as in windows 10. But the inability to access those events from the taskbar calendar is really a downgrade from windows 11.- abiolaemma2014Copper ContributorThis is good but does not work well

I think the most annoying thing here is that even when you've worked around your calendar functionality (whether using in your mail app, via widget, on web, etc.) you can't even get rid of the **bleep** thing in the task bar. So it just sits there, useless, popping up when you open your notifications even though you can't do anything with it. MS, if you're not going to add actual calendar function, could you at least throw a toggle into the Date & Time settings that keeps the useless calendar hidden?
Or let us supply what we want it to do ... such as open the Clock app, or the Calendar app ...
- JohnBloggzCopper ContributorIt was so stupid to remove the calendar and seconds.

tokgrumps Correct, yet it feels senseless to open the newsfeed with gadgets to see my occasions. The taskbar schedule on the taskbar now has no capacity with the exception of letting you know the time and date. It shows you the month and the date, and you can tap on one https://laquintahouston.com/ day (a circle shows up around that date) however you can do nothing with it. It is so disappointing I can't comprehend the reason why they would do this other than compel you to a (nearly) pointless schedule gadget over the newsfeed.
If it's not too much trouble, fix this we ought to have the decision of not utilizing the gadget schedule. Update Windows 10 taskbar schedule to a Windows 11 rendition.
- RauhbautzCopper ContributorI agree completely. This WIN11 version is a POS. Put it back in a usable state like it was in WIN10. For pete's sake.
- christopher4270Copper ContributorThis was enough for me to downgrade. I should have known when they say it was "free".
