• Windows Sidebar problem

  Hello

  hope someone can help with this.  I am running windows Vista Home Premium Edition SP2 and finally had time to fixation of a shift in my wired network connection (which was caused by the sidebar). In the end, I discovered its virtually impossible to uninstall, so downloaded an official fix to avoid that it launch and for security against the dubious gadgets.

  Result, I thought that during the restart, sidebar did not open, but now whenever I log in, although the Sidebar won't load, I get this message even with no way to turn it off (except by clicking ok every time) "Windows Sidebar is managed by your system administrator".  Anyone have any idea how to prevent this message from appearing every time that I connect?

  Tried different things, like trying to delete the files, but they are protected as my own admin account is clearly not "admin system" means the message.

  I am pleased that the Sidebar displays, even though she still seems to slow down my connection network (so why I wanted to install or remove it in the first place), but if I could only keep this message to every newspaper, I live with the slow connection and be a happy man!

  Tried NB restore before I downloaded the fix, but restriction "system administrator" has not disappeared.

  Tony,
  Have you checked your firewall to see if the file sidebar.exe is allowed?  When you have downloaded the update it probably resets the security settings for this program if your firewall blocks most likely it.  First try.

  Have you double checked the control panel for the side bar to ensure that it was activated?  Again, the setting could have been modified by the service pack.
  Try this, it includes a section "fix it for me":

  Hi KeithVenable,

  Please use the Windows Vista Forums.

  Do you find these files on your Startup?

  Sidebar.exe is a part of the Microsoft gadgets and gadget software. This file implements the functionality of Windows Sidebar from Windows Desktop. It is found in the folder C:\Program Files\Windows Sidebar\.

  The sidebar contains shortcuts to applications such as Windows Media Player or Gadgets that can be used to display information such as the time system and features powered by Internet such as RSS feeds.

  File Sidebar.exe under the above location is considered safe and is not a spyware or virus related.

  The mctadmin.exe file name is used by objects that are classified as safe. It is a system and the hidden file. It has not yet been seen to be associated with malware.

  Note: However, some malware themselves camouflage in the form of .exe files. Remember that even if many files are still in the default file locations, some files can easily be moved to different locations or change names as many spyware, adware or popup programs do.

  I recommend to perform a full scan on your computer and check for infections.

  1. Windows Live OneCare.

  After the latest Windows updates have been applied to my Vista laptop, the background of the Windows Sidebar is now opaque white and not transparent. How can I change to transparent so I can see the image of the Office under?

  Woo Hoo!  Had the same problem and stumbled upon the solution.   You MUST open the Panel configuration... then the customization of your monitor.  Once there, select "Window color and appearance."  You then set your color scheme to "Windows Vista Basic"... and waala!  Your sidebar is back to transparent.
