HELP! How do I install a new docklet???

Saturday, June 19, 2004 by rasubickram | Discussion: WinCustomize Talk

Hi... I am new to Object Dock, and just want to try out a few new docklets. I have the weather docklet and the simple animation docklets loaded by default. How do I install any other docklets?

I downloaded a couple... extracted them to my docklets folder (C:\Program Files\Stardock\ObjectDock\Docklets)... but I cannot see the new docklets as choices in the Docklets tab of 'Configure Dock'.

Please let me know how I can install these docklets??? THANKS!!

Make sure the docklets files are within their own folder inside the Docklets folder.

Hi CerebroJD,
I have a main folder called: C:\Program Files\Stardock\ObjectDock\Docklets

Then I have a bunch of folders inside this one:
C:\Program Files\Stardock\ObjectDock\Docklets\Animation
C:\Program Files\Stardock\ObjectDock\Docklets\SysStats
C:\Program Files\Stardock\ObjectDock\Docklets\Weather

The animation and weather docklets came with OD and work ok. But I cannot seem to get my SysStats docklet to start or work... not sure how to do this...

Any suggestions please? Thanks.

Oh. Umm...I've never been able to get the SysStats one to work for me...maybe email the author and ask him/her about it.
