Gadgets For Windows 8.1 Pro

To Whom Can Answer:

Ok...I know of an vulnerable exploit was discovered in windows 7 with regards to Gadgets and or Sidebars enabled on there systems but, I've come to like them and was wondering if there was a safer Gadgetsfor lack of better term has/had been made available for Windows 8.1 Pro or setup I could use to make use of them once again?

There are multiple places you can download gadgets and sidebars for Windows, this is one example.

Whether they are safe or not is not something I can't speak for. Windows discontinued them for vulnerability reasons, adding them back via third party could open you up to some of the same, if not different vulnerabilities.

A quick google search for gadgets and sidebars for Windows 8.1 will come back with multiple websites. It's really up to you if you want to take the risk.
