So So SOO Confused!!
Closed the sidebar when I first got my laptop,
and now I wish for it back.
When I go to open it, it tells me "Windows Sidebar is managed by your system
administrator", I AM THE SYSTEM ADMINISTRATOR!!

The sidebar is in start/accessories. Rightclick the Windows Sidebar icon,
and 'run as administrator'. Then rightclicking the icon in the Notification
area has Properties, and you set the sidebar to open when Windows starts.

Hi LouMac,
Check to make sure that Windows Sidebar is set as enabled in this
tutorial.

LouMac,
Since you do not have the sidebar.exe file in the "C:\Program
Files\Windows Sidebar" folder, then you should run a "sfc /scannow" (no
quotes) to see if it can restore that file for you. This tutorial will
show you how to.
