How to hide or unhide Publishers in News and Interests Taskbar Widget

If you do not like to read news from specific websites, you can hide publishers in News and Interests in Windows 10. There is an in-built option to manage which website you want to read and which you don’t. It opens a page via Microsoft Edge, and you can hide or unhide them from there.

It is possible to enable or disable News and Interests on Taskbar using Group Policy or Registry Editor in Windows 10. It is a panel where you can find the latest news, weather reports, sports result, and many more. Many people like to filter news by websites or have a list of websites that you want to read instead of reading anything. If you are one of them, you may get disappointed since News and Interests shows news fetched from msn.com, which is a consolidation of all the big publishers out there, and the news depends on your region. That’s why you may want to hide some of the publishers that you have a problem with.
