Installing/Running DesktopX Widgets

Friday, September 24, 2004 by Jeff Thompson | Discussion: WinCustomize Talk

I recently purchased DesktopX. I really like the widgets being developed for this app., but I need help on the process of downloading, installing, and the loading of new widgets. Any help with this would be greatly appreciared!

Download the widgets you want (from the 'DX Widget' section on left), put them in here: C:\Program Files\Stardock\Object Desktop\DesktopX\Widgets. Some need DX running...most don't. Just click on the installed widget you want and it will show up on your desktop. Configure it whatever way you want.

You don't really need to unzip widgets anywhere. Once you download and opent the zip file, just run that widget really quick. The close it if you want, but once it is run it is automatically placed in your \Program Files\Stardock\Object Desktop\Desktop X\Widgets folder. Super simple.
