Hi all,

I am trying to add more gadgets to my desktop. I clicked the "get more gadgets online" link and looked and found the gadgets I wanted. I clicked and downloaded. Then the install process is so fast it seems to be nonexistent. Then the gadget never appears on my sidebar and I do not have the option to add it to the sidebar from the list of gadgets already installed on my computer.

Any ideas why they do not seem to be installing?

Sincerely,

Oh my god....gadgets! i completely forgot about them im gonna open up my sidebar now. Oh and you problem, its very common! alot of gadgets are first attempts and don't worry properly. Try some official Microsoft ones.
