Gadgets not loading at all at boot
Hey forum, nice to be here,
My problem is rather simple, yet I can't really find anything on the forums that would solve it for me.
Almost everytime (2/3 times) I power on or restart my laptop (Win7 64bit SP1, all updates to date, fresh reinstall after upgraded to an ssd), my Windows gadgets do not load. Not talking about black boxes or graphical corruption of the gadgets, they simply do not load at all. Also, when this happens, right clicking the desktop and then going to Windows gadgets doesn't work anymore. The window does not open, as if something is not loaded or loaded incompletely at startup.
Restarting the laptop when this problem occurs usually fixes the problem, restoring the gadgets. The same does right click - show desktop gadgets - untick - tick back again, but I'd like a more permanent and stable fix, rather then applying cheap workarounds almost everytime.
My personal suspicion is that a particular, recently released, Windows update messed something with the gadgets loading cycles. Also note I have the default gadgets and did not install anything that could interfere with them.
Any help is welcome.
