Windows Update: Enable your Desktop Gadgets and Enlarge your Fonts


After a massive Windows Update, such as the so called “Creators” updates, certain settings of your system may change without any notice. Two most important changes concern desktop gadgets and font size.

If you like using desktop gadgets, you can safely re-enable them after Windows finishes the update. Just get a fresh and free copy of the Gadgetarian and enjoy your desktop gadgets.

Note that all the gadgets you already have been using are still there but invisible. You don’t need to uninstall or try to find anything at all. Just download and run the Gadgetarian, and you will find all your gadgets in the familiar Gadgets menu when you right click on your desktop.

You can always get even more and free gadgets at the Windows Live Gadgets site.

Besides this, Windows wouldn’t let you change the size of menus, but only using a magnification method that produced distortion. Text Size Changer is a free and small utility able to change only the text size. Yet Windows decided at last to offer natively this option! Just go to Settings, then to Accessibility > Text Size, and enjoy!
