Just go to your source.

Go inside "sources" folder.

Create "$OEM$" folder.

Create "$Progs" folder inside $OEM$ folder.

Create "Windows Sidebar" folder in "$Progs$" folder.

Create "Gadgets" folder in "Windows Sidebar" folder.

Create "Radio538.Gadget" folder in "Gadgets" folder.

Download the Radio538 gadget here:

http://gallery.live.com/liveItemDetail.asp...p;bt=1&pl=1

Extract the .gadget file with WinRAR and extract all the files to Radio538.Gadget folder.

Also an question.

When i created $OEM§\$Progs$\Windows Sidebar\Gadget\....gadget

the files are only copied.

When i installed an Gadget files also exist in C:\Users\beatmaster\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows Sidebar\Gadgets\ ....gadget.

I'm looking for a way how I can install Gadets silent ( not by oobe), so this will be displayed directly after the Windows installation on desktop.

I have created an Addon , wich installed in runonce phase of the first login, Gadet but are not installed. In a running system, the installation works of addons.

Now I stop looking away one, how can I install the GADET silent, so they are displayed directly.

Any idea`s ?

I didn't have Gadgets turned on so ran InstallwatchPro and 2 things were changed when I added Calendar

You would save both these things and apply them

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run]
"Sidebar"="C:\\Program Files\\Windows Sidebar\\sidebar.exe /autoRun"

C:\Users\YOURNAME\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows Sidebar\Settings.ini

Only had top 2 lines before adding

[Root]
SettingsVersion="00.00.00.02"

ShowGalleryPrivacyStatementOnceComplete="true"
Section0="1"

C:\Program Files\Windows Sidebar\Gadgets\Calendar.Gadget="%7B5418EBBA-C477-C961-A564-5ADA4B675E86%7D"
[Section 1]
PrivateSetting_GadgetName="C:%5CProgram%20Files%5CWindows%20Sidebar%5CGadgets%5CCalendar.Gadget"

dockedCalendarDivType="dow"
