first off, i am using windows 7 home premium. i recently tried to add some of the gadgets to my desktop but none of them will display properly. they either dont display at all or only the overall shape of the gadget will appear. whether they display or not they will always show the "x" to close out of the gadget as well as the icon to drag the icon.
i have tried all the troubleshooting techniques i have come across all over the web. these techniques include, running system file checker (came up with no discrepencies), deleting improper registry, disabling the windows gadget feature then re enabling it, and lastly i tried resetting my internet zone settings back to default. none of these has given me any result whatsoever.
i made another user account on my computer and when i log into it the gadgets work fine. one might just say to start using a new user account and delete the current account. i consider that a last resort, i have too much stuff on my current account and i would very much just like to fix the problem instead.
any help is greatly appreciated
