How to get back to enjoying Windows Vista widgets in Windows 10

One of the few things that Windows Vista users saw with good eyes, if not the only one, was the possibility of adding widgets to the PC desktop, widgets with which you could see the weather, the internet speed, the time, currency changes, simple games, resource meter and even a calculator. But these widgets were seen and not seen, since in Windows 8 they disappeared completely, in part due to the disappearance of the desk itself as we knew it so far. But shortly before, Microsoft had stopped offering maintenance, so he knew full well that his days were numbered.

But thanks to third-party applications, we can make use of an application called Windows Desktop Gadgets, an application that allows us to add a large number of widgets to the Windows 10 desktop, widgets like the ones I mentioned above and in a much greater number than what Windows offered us natively. The installation does not have any complications since we only have to select our language so that the widgets menu is displayed in our language.

Once we have installed the necessary application to be able to enjoy any widgets, we must go through the main page of the application Get's Revived, where VWe are able to find a large number of widgets of different topics such as battery, calculator, calendar, Christmas, clock, stopwatch, games, email, multimedia, network, rss, radio and television, recycle bin, search, presentation, system information, system tools, used time and much more.

Within each of these categories we will find a large number of widgets, for all tastes and needs, nothing to do with the few possibilities that the Windows Vista widgets offered us. This application is compatible from Windows 8 or higher, so if you are Windows 7 users do not bother to install it.
