ipd56 Posted October 9, 2007 Posted October 9, 2007 i try that uninstall fix and it break the Sidebar Tray Icon, but it does not remove the files off the computer ,it just put the gadget in the setting to disregard the gadget so it dont show, the down side of this if you change your mine and want the gadget u have to change the file name to get sidebar to show it, or edit the settings.ini .

ipd56 Posted October 9, 2007 Posted October 9, 2007 Thx rick for the info m8 i the only account on pc but it was better for me to put gadget in share gadget as i could get to it fast to uninstall gadgets . if i just copy the gadget to the other folder u said about will that work ok ? Quote
ricktendo Posted October 9, 2007 Posted October 9, 2007 Just download any gadget from the gallery and use Gadget Installer to install the gadget (double click the gadget, uncheck "Install for all users")Now go to the Sidebar's Gadget Gallery and uninstall itFinally open the Recycle Bin and you will see the gadget you just uninstalled Quote
