Iolo Sys. Mechanic gadget

Ok yet another gadget thread..
So I have Iolo System Mechanic and it comes with this gadget..
I've used it along with others for a while now..
I go to renew and upgrade ISM.. and when I do the gadget stops working..
I contact customer support (just loads of help) and they swear up and down that it has nothing to do with their software.. that it's a MS thing.
Evey "solution" I have come across has been no help.



This is what's going on here.. If anyone can help it'd be much appreciated.

No, I hadn't tried that, but I gave it a whirl just now, and no luck. Thanks anyhow.

I appreciate your help, but I've already tried both of those things. I realize that this problem is petty, but it's driving me up the wall.. I guess I can attribute it to laziness as it's much easier to rely on a gadget to tell you when to clean up rather than clicking a few times to find out yourself.

Yeah.. I guess I should've done that first, but at least I know what to do in the event other gadgets mess up.. Thanks a bunch.

So I reinstalled ISM, but no luck. I'm doing more research now, still, any help, hints or ideas are welcome.. from anybody.
