Question:
I seem to have accidentally removed the “feed headlines” gadget from the Windows Vista gadget list.   How can I get it back?
Answer:
Just follow these steps:
- Right-click the sidebar and then click Add Gadgets.
- Double-click Feed Headlines. Windows Vista adds your feed headlines gadget back into the sidebar.

- Close the gadgets window.











I have not only lost the Gadgets but it seems the sidebar as well. Any help?
Thanks
This happened to me too, I think removed all the gadgets from the sidebar and now the sidebar is gone and can’t get any of them back.
I found the answer in another topic. Hold the windows button and press space bar
I cannot find the sidebar, nor the gadgets
Go to Control Panel > Appearance and personalization > Windows Sidebar properties
Or straight to Windows sidebar Properties in Control Panel
I Lost the Gadgets itself any help
Many thanks , it works , Press Windows button and hold it then press SPACE bar
