Sorry all for the late reply, I'm so busy these days.

@modarm

I think the outlook gadget still has some bugs on it, there are some requirements for it to run properly. However you can search through Sidebar gallery for an alternative outlook gadget one. I'll also look for an update of this gadget too.

@kiki_burgh

I'm sure that it is working with nLite but I'm not sure with HFSLIP yet. However, you can try it. ^^

I also suggest that Rick's one would be more suitable to use in this case.

what gadgets we want to install while installing program ?

3. u said it ur instruction that the app Prerequisite:

- WLAN API

- .NET Framework 2.0

- VAIO Tools

4.i tried not to bother u and uncompressed ur app just to install only the gadgets that i want and add some more to install in by default but i cant :huh: , i don't know where all that files goes when installing i know some like where fonts will go but not more , so can u tell me if i can add some gadgets to install it by default or not and how ? :rolleyes:

@Black Dove,

You are right, it needs MSXML6.0 hotfix. I will update my instruction.

Normally, the gadegets are stored in c:\program files\Windows Sidebar\shared gadgets\ in each separate folders. Your idea is very good, I should make the install section that allow to choose which extra gadgets should be installed.

Thank ou very much for your feedback.

I'll fix this soon ^^.

Hi SoKoOLz, this installer worked a dream on my XP system. Thanks.

Can you tell me how the Gadget installer is supposed to work? I searched in the forum, with no luck.

Hi Hottie5,

The gadget Installer will allow you to install the gadget by just opening the gadget file, just like open up .txt document with notepad.

Nice app. Unfortunately, half the gadgets don't work! I will assume that is because .net framework is not installed on my computer. *grumbe* I hate that thing. Resets alot of options... Oh well, I have it downloading, let's see if they updated the thing or I can work around it.

BTW, the vista sidebar is claimed to be able to support any widget/gadget of the major widget makers. Considering this is a port, I would assume it has the same ability. But how does one use it?

Posted (edited)

Still nothing. I installed the framework, and used that register program. The register program didn't work. Even uninstalling and reinstalling didn't work. Since you've been of the most help, I'll use your addon system and see what I can manage with that.

Is it against the rules for this installer to include the WLAN API and VC2005 runtime within the installer? That would seem to be the final piece to make this installer complete; a nice touch would be the nero gadget installed as well (if it doesn't require Nero to be installed). Just a thought.

I think it is against the rule to pack everything...but I'm not quite sure about it.

The Nero Gadget needs NeroServerCMS to be run as a background app before using it though.
