Windows 10: Hovering over "News and Interests" pulls up a bunch of blank tiles

Windows 11 Pro 23H2 build 22631.4317When I hover over the News and Interest, it get a bunch of blank tiles on the screen. No data. Clicking on any tile does nothing.I have tried turning Widgets off and on in Settings. No change. It doesn't seem to matter what network I'm on, whether it be public WiFi, or my private home network.

Preview of full news on hover in News and Interest

This feature is already present, but only in the *TOP STORIES SECTION* not in the normal news tiles.

I think, we must have this feature in the normal tiles too so as to read the full news on hovering over the headline

Please have this done

Creating a new tiles group in windows 10

Hi everyone,

I was trying to figure out how to do this, and I ran into the same grief.

So, now that I know how to do it, I thought I'd post what works for me.

When you open the Start Menu, you have two large, vertical sections.

• On the left, a list of your "Most used" programs.
• On the right, your groups of Tiles ... and the location we want to create a new group.
  
  The first tile group in this list is probably titled "Life at a glance."

A few basic things to know

• Both of these two lists in the Start Menu are vertically scrollable.
• Each tile group is separated so that each one falls below the next.
• The title for each group is left-aligned in the space between tile groups.
• If you hover your mouse pointer over the space between tile groups (or over a group's title), you'll see a little menu icon appear to the right of the title (right-aligned). It looks like two horizontal lines. In mobile webpages, it's often referred to
  as a mobile menu or hamburger menu. It's not a menu here. I don't know what Microsoft calls it, so I'm going to call it a Grab Handle (it'll make sense shortly).
• Your existing Tile groups are all stacked one above the other on the right side,
  but there's always one group hidden at the very bottom of the list. If you scroll down and look, you'll see an empty space at the bottom of your tiles list that's larger than the space between your existing
  tile groups.
  
  Let's call this the "New Tile Group space."
• The Start Menu creates a new group when you drag an icon into the "New Tile Group space."
  
  It doesn't matter if the icon comes from the left list of "Most used" programs or from somewhere else in the Tiles list. Simply drag it down there, and voila! A new tile group.

If you click on the space between tile groups, of if you click on a "Grab Handle," you can add or edit the name for the tile group immediately below it, including your new group.

If you want to change the placement of any tiles, simply drag them to where you want them.

If you want to change the order of your tile groups, simply grab the "Grab Handle," and drag the group up or down to where you want it to sit in the tiles list.

A suggestion...

If you're going to create a new group by dragging an icon from the left "Most used" list, I'd suggest scrolling the tiles list (on the right) to the very bottom first. You'll have that "New Tile Group space" immediately accessible to drop your icon onto
-- without having to mess with trying to make the list auto scroll while dragging.

That's it.

I get the whole desire to cater to mobile and finger navigation, but wouldn't also having an option button or link make a whole lot of sense?
