I love the Windows Gadget Pack. I love having the little gadgets giving me the status of my network card, CPU and GPU to refer to at a glance.
Sadly, I have had to retire them. I have become tired of fighting with them as they move around the screen every time I come back from sleep and I have to put them back to where I want them yet again. I have a pretty good idea as to why they do this. I think it is because I have my 4K monitor scaled at 150% so I can read the fonts, and my other monitor is 1080p. I think this is mixing up Windows. I think my solution is to buy another 4K monitor. At least then my scaling will be consistent. We shall see.
So for now, I regrettably relegate gadgets to my unused apps folder, but as soon as I can find a fix they are going back. Call me crazy if you like.
