Widgets on Windows 11 not opening at all
On Windows 11 (build 22000.120), the Widgets program does not open when I click on it. Nothing shows up on the screen, not even a blurry rectangle. The animation on the icon works, but that is it. I ...

I have the same problem as all the others. Even though I have the latest version of Windows 11 and have followed all suggestions for fixing Widgets nothing works.

I have fixed this on my domain joined laptop by going to settings >Accounts > Email & Accounts
Under Accounts used by other apps and then under your Microsoft account email address
Go to Sign in Options and change the drop down to "Microsoft Apps can sign me in"

- nackcomp47Oct 13, 2021Brass ContributorCould not find a drop down menu to choose microsoft apps can sign me in.
- RichardLLOct 13, 2021Copper ContributorMatt, I attempted the solution you suggested, but there was no drop down available. Only a 'manage' button that launched a browser window and took me to the Account page at MS. I suppose this could be either because I'm not on a domain, or that my MS account is based on my Google one.
Thanks for the suggestions, I'd like to hear if this fixed the issue for anyone else, so we can determine what the differences are other than domain/no domain. - Andres_parraOct 13, 2021Copper ContributorHello there
