Received no email reply, so far. Will this work via GMAIL? I can send you another email from there

A nice new day, good morning Shane! Any new guidance?

4
OK, we sleep on it, see if inspiration will flower in the morning. At any rate I am very tired from conducting a complicated concert yesterday (MozartOrchestra.org) on little sleep. Thanks Shane for your good-will and your devotion!

Those were the 3 permissions, I added everyone, which is what your utility added to everything - a lifesaver for my week-long struggle to install Adobe CS6 on my system!

6
it was for my user name

7
Yes, I just changed it to everyone --- no gadgets

8
Security is set to "Everyone" I created a gadgets shortcut on the desktop and changed its security to everyone ---nothing yet

9
It shows as installed in CTRL PNL, I typed gadgets in Start, I get the same empty background as before

10
UAC asked for permission to run the EXE

11
The downloaded zip deflated as an exe. I do not see an msi

12
UAC is set to medium

13
Uninstalled, no Win Sidebar folders, re-installed, it shown in control pnl but it looks the same, now I cannot get anything, no empty background, nothing happens when I try to execute sidebar.exe, there is no gadgets shortcut, nothing in the start menu...

14
There is NOTHING in the appLauncher folder!

15
I uninstalled, rebooted and installed the version from your link --the same empty background, no gadgets. I hated the Win 8 tile deal so I installed StarDock START8 which gave my Start button back and the Win 7 desktop under Win 8. Is it possible that THAT is preventing the sidebar with the gadgets? On the other hand it was all working before I ran your cleaner...

16
and TWO settings.ini files!

17
I have installed under Users AND in Program Files. Is the double installation the problem?

18
It all goes to the blank background, does not add anything

19
No change. This is what I get trying to run gadget.exe as admin:

20
App is in Windows Sidebar\Sidebar.exe

21
Running it as admin makes no difference

22
It did not give me the option of installing it as Admin.

23
Empty gadget -just-the-background and a momentary error "stopped installation of sidebar files." I tried to find the error in the app event viewer, no luck.

24
My applauncher, the only gadget I use from the 8gadget pack was running fine on Win 8 Pro x86 but some setting is not allowing installation of sidebar files.

Shane, I found the solution: HP laptops have a security program Digital Persona, in charge of fingerprints etc., with associated registry keys apparently overriding the one I disabled. I uninstalled it from CTRL PNL, rebooted and DONE. Thanks for your time on this!
