Desktop gadgets works not

I used to have a gadget calendar/weather on my desktop, but recently it ceased to appear at the beginning.

I can not open any window of Google desktop gadgets, whether through click with the right button on the desktop or through the control panel.

I try to click on something to do with the desktop gadgets and nothing comes, it seems right that it is impossible to open it.

If anyone can help me solve this problem, I will be really grateful.

    They do not correctly when you installed IE11.

    You can play with the ppp settings. Reduce the setting works, but for me, the cure is worse than being without one or two gadgets. You lose not all the gadgets, only some of them.

    UAC (User Account Control) is turned off? Gadgets will not work if you have turned off UAC you'll need to turn it back on it. If you still have questions after that only to try a system restore to a time where they worked as it may be a problem of corruption/system registry.
