Quote:Microsoft has released a new app called News Bar, which is essentially a news ticker that can be pinned to your Windows 10 desktop.
 
The Microsoft Store application is currently in beta stage, and by the looks of things, it’s not yet available in all regions across the world.
 
However, given the app is already listed in the Microsoft Store, there’s a good chance it would go live for everyone rather sooner than later.
 
Microsoft says the News Bar app is essentially a news taskbar that allows you to read the latest news and even keep an eye on stocks, all with a bunch of basic options such as hiding the bar for a specific time when working.

“The News Bar brings you the latest news from the Microsoft News network of over 4500 of the world's most respected journalism brands. In addition, you can configure it to provide you with up to date information throughout the day on your favorite stocks,” Microsoft explains in the description of the app.
