How To Update Weather Widget On Mac And Windows?

To update the Weather widget on a Mac and for a more general approach on Windows, follow these steps:

Mac

1. For the built-in Weather widget on macOS, open Notification Center:

   • Click the date in the menu bar (at the far right and top of your Mac's screen).

2. Access the widget:

   • Scroll down in Notification Center to the bottom and click "Edit Widgets."

3. Interact with the Weather widget:

   • Ensure the widget is set to a medium (M) or large (L) view.
   • Click the item in the Weather widget to see full weather details or actionable options.
   • To get more accurate results, enable Location Services:
     • Go to "System Preferences > Security & Privacy" and select "Location Services."
     • Check the Weather option, and if necessary, click the lock icon and enter your Mac's password to make changes.

4. To add the widget to the desktop, starting in macOS Sonoma:

   • Click the date in the menu bar to open Notification Center.
   • Scroll to the bottom and click "Edit Widgets."
   • Drag a widget from the widget gallery and place it on the desktop.
   • Click "Done" to close the widget gallery.

Windows

While there's no built-in Weather widget in Windows as standard, you can use a third-party app like the Weather Widget Live or use a widget in your Start Menu. Here's a general process:

1. Download and install a third-party app with a Weather widget feature, such as Weather Widget Live (as mentioned in the search results).
2. Open the app and configure the widget settings to suit your preferences.
3. Follow the app's instructions to add the widget to your desktop or taskbar.
4. Verify that the widget is providing accurate weather data and, if necessary, adjust the app's settings to ensure location services are enabled.

In both Mac and Windows scenarios, ensure that the app providing the Weather widget is up-to-date for the most current weather data.
