Delete Tahoe Update and go back....
I don't like anything about the new Tahoe update. Is there a way to delete and go back?
MacBook Air 13″, macOS 26.1

Reverting to Sequoia is not simple. You need to boot into Recovery OS, erase your internal drive, then install the older macOS, then restore from a backup made prior to the Tahoe upgrade. Even then, the firmware on the Mac may have been updated, meaning potential conflicts and a possible need for DFU mode and a Configurator revive/restore, which would need to be done via another Mac connected to yours. If that sounds complicated and risky, then you're assessing the situation correctly.

If you mean the widgets, secondary-click (control click, right click) on the desktop and select Edit Widgets. Then click the (–) signs at the top left corners of the widgets.

It's really not that different from sequoia.
Are you having a technical problem or is is just a matter of adjusting to the new look?
I cannot delete anything off of my desktop screen.....Weather/Date...they won't go away...
Follow the link provided above. Getting rid of the widgets isn't that hard...
Oh, and hit the grocery store in the morning. You're going to get hammered with snow tomorrow into Monday morning.
I thank you for your advice... both technical & life saving⛷️a little snow is always wonderful to see...
