Slide Show gadget has no options

[pip22]

I've recently re-installed the Sidebar on my Windows XP owing to a failed disk, and the Slide Show gadget doesn't give me any options. The options box opens but all the fields are blank so I can't select a folder, a transition-effect or a time-duration. Any ideas on why this is so?

TIA
