Windows Vista Sidebar question

[someonesmom]

When I turn on my computer the clock, weather etc. on the Sidebar does not come up unless I go into programs and click on it each time. How do I get it to launch every time I start the computer. It used to.
Thanks

Click your Windows Icon, to bring up your start menu.
Where it says Start Search; type in "Sidebar".
Left Click on Windows Sidebar Properties. New window will appear.

Place a checkmark on the option that says "Start Sidebar when Windows starts"

Click OK
you're done. restart to see if it has worked.

Thank you so much. That worked. Thanks too, for such easy to follow instructions. I am almost computer illiterate.
