By default, Windows displays so-called widgets at the far left of the taskbar. These include, for example, current weather information or stock market prices. Clicking on the widget currently displayed opens a window where you can remove individual widgets from the selection by clicking on the three dots and selecting `Remove.'
After clicking on the plus sign in the widget window, you can select further widgets for the taskbar from a list, including a countdown.Foundry
Clicking the plus sign in the top right-hand corner, on the other hand, takes you to a list where you can add additional widgets. However, it's also possible to disable the display of widgets completely. To do this, go to `Settings' in Windows, click on `Personalisation > Taskbar' and then toggle the switch next to `Widgets' to `Off.'
