How to Add Windows Vista/7 Desktop Gadgets to Windows 8

If you used of any of the desktop Gadgets available in Windows 7/Vista, you will notice that they have all gone once you've upgraded to Windows 8. This is because Microsoft has ceased support for Gadgets under the new operating system. Here's how to install Windows 7 Gadgets when you are using Windows 8.

There's no official way to  install them, but you can get them back by installing a free utility called 8Gadgetpack, available from http://8gadgetpack.bplaced.net.

Installing this utility will create a gadget sidebar to which you can add any of the gadgets you had previously installed on Windows 7 without having to download them again. All user settings should also be preserved. If you don't like the sidebar, you can close it and place the gadgets directly on the desktop as before.

Here is Online Radio Gadget presets many live radio stations. Enjoy!
