can you give me an example? i've googled for links and none of them work at all.

aight so check this out

these are rss subscriptions for weather.com: http://ab.weather.com/weather/rss/subscription

say you wanted to get updated on national weather. you'd look under "rss readers" and pick from any of the 3 options (i always used xml) and then you just copy the web link. you then take that rss link and paste it in its respective place within your rainmeter skin (that you're editing with what ever text editor you have)

rainmeter scripts come in all sorts of different shapes and sizes, but its usually really easy to find the rss information. it'll probably look like "rss=(linkhere)" or something. you'd just have to look through it and read through the lines. if i was in a position to actually to a picture tutorial i would so if you dont get this i can try to do that later

rofl people actually having their search bars enabled in W10

really it's such a waste of space for something that every browser already has readily and for your FS, can be accessed even quicker by just pressing the winkey

I have it on only for nostalgia reasons. I always had the address bar enabled in previous versions of Windows.

Doughboy · March 31, 2016, 02:57:31 PM

I use Cortana very often but that search bar is useful for finding things on your pc as well, you can even run commands from it that you usually would have to open run to use.

~~how do you even disable it~~
nvm did it

Nymph · March 31, 2016, 05:31:02 PM

How else would you search without a search bar? I mainly use it because I don't know of any other way, and I have always had one so why not.

Since you don't use it have you tried the slim taskbar option? It might appeal to you, you can find it by right clicking on the taskbar, going to properties, and selecting "use small taskbar buttons".

Its in start regardless of whether you have it enabled or not, Win + S brings it up regardless.

Because you can actually just start typing while the search menu is up. It worked this way in W7 and W8 too.
