Microsoft Adds Ads to MSN Weather App
Microsoft has once again stirred up controversy by introducing ads into the MSN Weather app, a move that has left some users frustrated. The change was first noticed by Windows Latest, a tech news website known for keeping a close eye on Microsoft’s updates.
It appears that Microsoft has implemented a server-side change that injects ads into the MSN Weather app on Windows 11. Despite its appearance as a desktop app, MSN Weather is actually a web app that relies on an Edge WebView to display its design and content.
Since the app is essentially a web wrapper, Microsoft has the ability to make server-side adjustments, such as introducing ads, without the need for a traditional software update. This has raised concerns among users, as there is currently no way to revert to a previous version of the app, as highlighted by Windows Latest.
