Windows 10: Showing Calendar and Weather Gadgets on Desktop

This article shows you how to show some helpful gadgets (or widgets) like calendar, clock, weather, news… on your desktop screen.

Windows 10 doesn’t have built-in features for this stuff. In order to reach our goal, we need to use a third-party app. Don’t worry. This one used in this guide is free, lightweight, easy to use, and non-ads. It’s the Widgets HD app.

Install Widgets HD from Microsoft Store

Firstly, go to “Start” and search for “Microsoft Store”.

After that, search for “Widgets HD” from Microsoft Store then install it. Next, launch the app.

Show what you need

After launching Widgets HD, select the widgets you want to show up on your desktop screen and drag them to any position you like.

When you start your computer next time, the widgets you had selected before will automatically show up.
