Just installed Windows 11 Pro 24H2. I have already gone into Settings - Lock screen status - and selected None. But it keeps going back to Weather and more, and that stuff shows on my lock screen.

Any idea on how to fix?

I have not searched for any Windows Updates yet.
 
Lock Screen widgets (or "cards") are very annoying, because MS keeps changing their mind on how they work. Some users get them, others can't even see them because it's a gradual rollout.

The settings can change from W10 to W11. Some of MS's guides only work because you're blocking Widgets in general (and not just from the Lock Screen).

There's a GPO rule that half works. I find you need to run "gpupdate /f" to apply it immediately.
Code: 
reg add HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\System /v DisableLockScreenAppNotification /t REG_DWORD /d 1 /f
gpupdate /f
 
It seems to be working okay now. Don't know what happened. Computers are maddening.
