A temperate widget that tells you what the current temperate is in your town or city would be a handy addition to the taskbar. However, there are a few third-party programs with which you can add temperature widgets to the taskbar, system tray, or wider Windows desktop.
How can I show the temperature on the taskbar on Windows 10?
1. Use WeatherBug
WeatherBug is a weather application that provides you with an updated and exact forecast, while also displaying the temperature for a selected world region with its taskbar icon. Installing WeatherBug Configuring WeatherBug
2. Use 8GadgetPack
8GadgetPack allows you to have the weather widget on the desktop instead of the taskbar. This great tool allows you to customize the way your temperature is being shown, and you can also modify its position and colors. Installing 8GadgetPack Configuring the Weather Center widget
3. Tweak taskbar settings
The weather widget that can be displayed in the bottom right side of the taskbar is part of the News and interests widget. This means that enabling the News and interests widget will automatically make your Windows 10 device show the temperature on the taskbar.
Go to Desktop.
Right-click on the taskbar to open a menu with multiple options.
Select News and interests from the list.
Choose Show icon and text.
The weather widget now shows the temperature on your taskbar.
The WeatherBug and 8GadgetPack are two third-party programs you can add temperature widgets to the Windows 10 taskbar and desktop with. A new WeatherBug app is also in the pipeline, which will probably be better than the current one. With those temperature widgets, you can see whether you’ll need a coat or not before heading out. However, there is a built-in option to show the temperature on the taskbar on Windows 10 as well, as long as you don’t mind seeing News on it as well. We hope you found this article helpful.
