The developer decided that they had the need for them. Alternatively, live tiles were integrated as an alternative to Windows 8. New interface I didn't like everyone else. However, living tiles are largely similar to gadgets in many ways. They can see a lot useful informationwhich is updated online.

The second important difference lies in one particular gadget, which is called 7 Sidebar and is automatically turned on after installation. This gadget adds side 10.

Video on the topic

The desktop gadgets are officially recognized by the vulnerability in the operating system protection system. They refused after the seventh version. For Vista and seven were even produced special applicationsnecessary to get rid of Windows desktop from this attack.

We all went through the era of pirated copies of Windows with Trojans, back-road and vulnerabilities who are creating incomprehensible things. In order to bring clouds and snow to put your safety at risk. Of course, no one prohibits using Desktop Gadgets Installer.

Gadgets

In Windows, the gadgets are the same as the widget site. Small allocated elements made from general design performing a specific function. It can be:

1. Alarm clock.
2. Clock.
3. The calendar.
4. Weather forecast.
5. Rate.
6. Games.
7. News.

In the seven, the installation of gadgets was extremely simple. It was necessary to click right-click on the desktop and select the appropriate menu item.

The system offered a pre-installed collection.

Climbing on any of them could be installed. There is no more in the top ten, because active elements Violate the security of the system. You can read more about this here support.microsoft.com/ru-ur/help/13787/gadgets-have-been-discontinued. Over the last month, Microsoft's official website has no record about how to put gadgets somewhere.

Applications for windows

Microsoft could not leave users without an alternative and offer them gadgets on Windows 10, but only this is not completely gadgets) even more precisely, they are not at all, but the starting tiles are embedded in the Start menu. This is how it looks like on the counter.

In fact, nothing has changed, but now the beautiful labels cannot be reset to the desktop. To configure about this or that event, you will have to strain and press the WIN button, or click the left mouse button on the Start menu. It was decided to try out this Divo on the example of Euronews.

It must be admitted that the icon is quite unparalleled, not a couple of gadgets. When you press, the application is started with the news, drags on the desktop in the form of a label. In fact, it's just an application. Nothing more. We must admit that after this experience we understood those who wish to return the gadgets to the Windows desktop 10. Appearance and functionality are completely different. Although still managed to find out that 2000 ducks were killed in France, and now the pate, probably, will rise in price.

Perenov sample

Honestly, the first impression is so-so. However, judge for yourself ... Here is a screen.

Well ... at least now it is clear that today is December 2. Not bad. After a few seconds, the program completed his work and removed all the gadgets. It is a pity that the weather gadget does not work, and RSS does not want to display a news list on the screen, an incorrect widget can be removed. Another thing is that it is not so beautiful as I would like.
