I have tried the fix in this post:

It fixes the problem only temporarily, but after a few days the problem rises again.

Thanks for your help.

Are the gadgets black, or white with a little arrow? If they are white, try this

Ahhh, so gadgets do not load with windows at all? Does the sidebar process show in task manager? See if any of the suggestions in this thread help you

No, gadgets do not load at all when I boot windows.

Right now the sidebar process shows in task manager.

I have also tried to turn off and then turn on again gasgets in windows features, but i even worsens the problem.

Worse then not loading at all? Did you try all the suggestions? Including this one?

OK, try this. Navigate to

C:\Users\(Your user name)\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows Sidebar

Copy the Settings.ini to another location so if this doesn't work, you can copy it back. Now delete the .ini file. reboot and see if that helps.

I cannot delete settings.ini, I get a message saying that the file is open in Windows Desktop Gadgets.

Maybe I can try to do it nex time that gadsgets don't show.
