Fortunately it is in the Widget window, and I'll go for weeks without clicking it.

If you go into widget settings, maybe there's a way to turn it off there.

No, but I don't care, other than MS ability to make changes like that.

Even uber-politically-correct Apple didn't put a "pride flag" into the menu bar...!

Steve Jobs spoke a lot about mixing apples politics and business and not mixing them.

Win11:  I just found out how to align the task bar back to the left side of the screen where it belongs instead of in the middle.  Don't see any rainbow flags though.

Microsoft says there is no way to hide it, which tells me that there absolutely positively IS a way to hide it.  Also found out how to pull out the product key for Office 2016 (which Microsoft also says is impossible).
If a political party does not have its foundation in the determination to advance a cause that is right and that is moral, then it is not a political party; it is merely a conspiracy to seize power.

That being said, if it's displaying "celebrate pride" when when one hovers over it, that might be a search term in the regedit app that could be used to find it.



Yep... Though you might need something that can strain the carrots better than regedit.exe .

Probably Wise for scuba diving. I use several, mostly tweakers that do specific things better than the others.

Not on mine, anyway.

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

I'm not seeing it on my version of Win10, either.
