Moving widgets just became easier
Moving widgets on your start pages was a drag, we must admit this. So we decided to change it, and make it easier and better. This is what we came up with.
As you may know, widgets can be moved around pages simply by dragging them. Today we launched an update that further simplifies how you can organize your widgets.
From now on, when you start moving a widget, all widgets on the page will be minimized, making it a lot easier to move your widgets around.
Did you know that you can drag widgets to other pages as well? To do that, simply drag a widget to a page in the header bar.

this works! thank you! as of 3/20/19
Did anyone ever find a resolution to this issue?
I just figured it out. Right click on a blank spot (like between widgets) on your Start page. Choose Organize Widgets. The Widgets will minimize and then you can drag them around to reorganize your page. Click Done at the top to go back to the normal page, where they are not minimized. This worked for me in Chrome on Windows.
THANK YOU!. this worked (as of 3/20/19)
The cross-hairs shows, but it does not drag on Chrome. My top menu bar doesn’t look dark gray like the picture on this post either.
same here, unable to move the widgets at all on chrome
i know this article is years old but i don’t know where to go for help… my widgets won’t move anymore. i’m using latest version of firefox i know i’ve moved them before but they won’t minimize anymore and won’t move. is there something i can do or am i stuck with this since i’m using FF? any help is appreciated
I used to be able to do this by going into edit mode but now I can’t move widgets at all. Tried on both firefox and chrome

It’s doesn’t work for me. I don’t now how to do this.
What kind of device are you using? On touch-devices (such as phones, tablets, but newer laptops as well) you need to switch the widget you want to drag to edit-mode first (e.g. using the widget’s dropdown menu)
