Weather and Currency gadget
The weather and currency gadget on my laptop is not working but is working fine on my desktop. I have tried the APPDATA files thing, Disableing/reenabling the gadget service as well as AV and firwall, redownloading the gadget, and almost every other trick I saw that worked for other people but surprise f***ing surprise it does not work for me. CLosest I have been able to get was getting the currency gadget to change from 253 days ago to 12 minutes ago but the weather gadget still did not work.
I have also tried the fix it file from Microsoft Security Advisory: Vulnerabilities in Gadgets could allow remote code execution
and
Sting251's fix from Weather gadget not working- Cannot connect to service - Microsoft Community which seemed to work for everyone else but for me it made it now "show Cannot connect to service"
There have been talks that the currency and weather gadgets have been disable by Microsoft due to vulnerabilites but if that was the case they would not work on my desktop either but the desktop is fine so they have NOT been disabled by MS.
Im about 2 steps of throwing my laptop off Niagara Falls. Does anyone know how to get the weather and currency gadgets fixed on the laptop....so they work like they do on the desktop?
