Sorry for all the confusion folks. My/Mike's batch files should be all fixed up now. Make sure to pay attention to the instructions for them. You need to save the StardockWeather.ocx to the following directories:
32bit: C:\Program Files\Common Files\Stardock
64bit: C:\Program Files\Common Files\Stardock and C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Stardock
If need be, replace 'C:\Program Files\Common Files' with the Program Files dir on your machine. The .bats will point to %programfiles% and others accordingly. Also note you may have to manually create the \Stardock dir in these locations if it's not there already.
These directories are listed in the output of the .bat. Once you save the file there, hit any key to push the batch file along, and it will register the control and should get things working. These should work for any weather gadget/docklet/etc. giving this error.
Send me an e-mail at support@stardock.com or a PM if you run into any snags.
Oh, yeah, the links:
32 bit: http://sd.stardock.com/mike/apps/install_weather.bat64 bit: http://sd.stardock.com/mike/apps/install_weather_64.bat
Note: These must be run as admin (right click, run as administrator) in Vista. Even if you have UAC disabled.
I have tried everything that has been suggested here, and nothing has worked.
I'm seeing the same clock problem in Gloss Mint. In addition, the minute hand freezes for several minutes at a time even when the second had get nudged into motion. If I right click the clock I get a message that thereis a problem with the ESIRegister shortcut.
I'm going back to the Sidebar clock.
On the other hand, the weather gadget is working fine.
Same here and the calanders do not work either - take your pick I have 12 themes
