CoreImage - Windows 11 Widgets and Chat icons


Issue

After an Intune-CoreImage device is upgraded to Windows 11, it may show the Widget icon and the Chat shortcut on the taskbar.  These should not be present.

Environment

A CoreImage device upgraded from Windows 10 to 11

Cause

Intune policy has yet to apply to the device.  The policy will eventually receive policy, or a user can force a sync.

Resolution

Wait for the Widget icon on the far left of the taskbar to disappear and then logout and log back into Windows to remove the Chat shortcut.

You can speed up processing policies by syncing with Intune.
