Gadgets and roaming profile
After quite a bit of testing, I've established that gadgets added to the windows 7 desktop are not part of a roaming profile. So, does anyone know of a method to allow users with a roaming profile to take the desktop gadgets with them between workstations?

Hello, In windows 7, user sidebar configuration information is saved in a settings.ini file. This file is in USERNAME\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows Sidebar. As far as I know, there's no way to redirect this folder to the roaming profile. That is to say, if you want to take the desktop gadgets with them between workstations, you need to manually create synchronization between Windows Sidebar folder with your file server. When user log off, this folder will be saved on the file server. And when user log in, windows should sync this folder with the file server.Thomas77
