How to Install Widgets on Your PC
Did you ever want a virtual fish that swims on your desktop? Or a digital clock that is better than the one in your taskbar? There are ways of "changing" your computer to be like a Mac using widgets. This guide will show you how to install them.
1. Search for "desktop widgets" on any search engine. You may use any of the external links for assistance in finding some.
2. Download and install the program needed for the widgets to work. Most of the time, a specific program (for example, Yahoo) will not work with Google widgets, as Google has it's own installation.
3. Go to the website again & download the widget(s) of your liking. Your browser will ask you where you want to open the file or save it. You will need WinRar if it is a .rar file.
4. Put the files into the correct "widget" folder the program has already given you. This method allows you to be more organized and find them more easily if you wish to use it.
5. Open the program & pick the widgets you want to use by using the "Load Widgets" or "Browse" button. Most will already have several pre-downloaded widgets for you to use, such as basic calendars, digital or analog clocks, and weather tabs.
6. Double-click on the widget or click on "Select", depending which program you have.
