Explainer: How to Remove the Pride Flag Microsoft Added to the Windows 11 Taskbar
Breitbart ^ | June 6, 2023 | Lucas Nolan

Posted on 06/06/2023 12:48:01 PM PDT by Morgana

Woke Microsoft has added a Pride flag to the widgets board located on the taskbar of Windows 11 to demonstrate its allegiance to the LGBT agenda. Here’s how to disable it.

GeekerMag reports that Microsoft has added a Pride flag to the widget board of its newest operating system, Windows 11, as a gesture of support for Pride Month.

The decision appears to be an effort by Microsoft to display its commitment to diversity and inclusion. The company believes in the woke LGBT agenda to such a degree that it does give users the option to remove the pride flag from their desktop. Despite Microsoft forcing the icon on all users, there are a few workarounds to remove the pride flag.

There are no settings or options for removing the Pride flag directly in Windows 11’s settings app, widget board settings, or anywhere else. This leaves you with the following choices:

1 Hide the Widgets panel.

2 Uninstall the Widgets panel entirely and reinstall it later (or never!).

Here are the steps to hide the Widgets panel in Windows 11:

1 Right-click on the Taskbar and select ‘Taskbar settings’.

2 In the Taskbar settings page, under ‘Taskbar items’, toggle off the Widget button. The Widget, and thus the Pride flag, will no longer appear. You can undo these changes to restore the Widget at any point.

Best way to remove the pride fag is to stop using Microsofts spyware os and switch to an entry level linux OS.

PRIDE FLAG IN THE TASKBAR WTF ... PING!

You can find all the Windows Ping list threads with FR search: just search on keyword "windowspinglist".

 

HERE'S HOW TO GET RID OF IT, SORT OF, FROM MICROSOFT'S FORUM

How do I remove the pride flag button that reads “celebrate pride” when I hover over it in the news section of the taskbar?

>ditch Microsoft entirely and go to a Linux distribution.

I used to be a huge M$ bigot, still am but I’ve softened somewhat. Unix/FreeBSD/Linux diehard for 30+ years. Still need M$ for gaming and some CAD/CAM tools. Aside from that, there’s very little that can’t be done under Linux.

Some of us still have to support it.

I used to have a tagline from my corporate email that went: “As long a Microsoft continues to make crappy software I’ll continue to have a crappy job!

I upgraded to 11 just before moving to Florida in 2021. So I can delete the Pride flag, but can I replace it with a Florida Man graphic?

Turned on my widgets just so I could complain about it. No luck, no fag flag there.
