Hi,
I could create a gadget for my application, and also I could copy that to "\Program Files\Windows Sidebar\Gadgets" during the installation. Now I want to set my gadget as default gadget after setup completed.
How can I do that?

What do you mean by "default gadget after setup"?

There seems to be an option to restore the default gadgets that originally came with Windows in case a user had removed any of them. Do you mean this? You want windows to restore your gadget when the user selects this option?
