| Windows 7 Professional 64-bit SP1 / CentOS 6.2 64-bit 7 posts | Can gadgets be backed up and restored onto a Windows 7 computer? Hi I'm a bit new to this forum and very soon I'm upgrading the HDD on my Sony Vaio to 1TB as well as upgrading my OS to Windows 7 Ultimate but I have some gadgets that are no longer available on the now retired Windows Live Gallery that I would hate to lose. Is there any way that I can save the gadgets I currently have on my computer so they can be used after the upgrade? Any help would be appreciated  |
