The date is not appearing in any gadgets I use.. the date is displayed in the system tray - but the Calender gadget shows an empty orange background. How can I fix this ?

Re-register vbscript.dll file to fix this.

Open an elevated Command Prompt window. by clicking on Start -> All Programs > Accessories. Right-click Command Prompt, and then click Run as Administrator.

Type the following command and press Enter

regsvr32.exe vbscript.dll

You should see the following message after running the command:

DllRegisterServer in vbscript.dll succeeded.

Close any gadgets and open them again. If that does not help, restart Windows.

First off I'm running Windows 7 on a Dell XPS 17 l702x.

Well all the command prompt fixes did nothing, I found an answer that helped me. You don't have to restart your computer.

  • First close all your gadgets
  • Go your C:\ drive
  • Go to Users\<your user name>\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows Sidebar

AppData is a hidden folder, enable your hidden folders. Here you want to delete the settings.ini file.

When the file is deleted, run your calendar.
