I use my computer offline with windows 10. However, I keep getting an annoying message that takes up half the screen saying, “we’re having trouble loading your feed.” I have turned all notifications in settings, but l’m still getting the message.
Any advice on how to stop this message continually popping up?

Not obvious based on the image you posted.
Probably something running at startup, so...
Load Task Manager and check the startup tab and see what you can see
OR
Perhaps is loading as a Scheduled Task, so....
Load Task Scheduler and see what you can see.
OR
IF still no joy then grab a copy of Autoruns
Run as administrator and maybe you might spot it there.

If you turn your weather app off in the taskbar, do you still get the message??

There's been a number of program installs over the years that require Internet access so they can do a "call home" thing, probably for updates, registration, etc. Looking at some older program CDs DVDs may show Internet Explorer or IE5 in a folder, a clue to that program doing it. But Microsoft's push of advertising is also in the mix.

Well, this threat is already three years old, just resurfaced by Amreen.
