    Recommended desktop calendar widget for Windows?

    I use Todo Agenda on my Android phone, which is a widget that you can add to your home screen that brings together various calendars into one list (color-coded).Is there anything similar for Windows 10?I would like it on my desktop, similar to a sticky note or a weather widget, rather than a full program/app.

    Widgets and Gadgets?


    No, W10 removed all support for W7 Widgets because they were prone to "infection", so no widget will ever be allowed to install.

    W10 removed the generic Start Screen tile display of W8, but put the tiles on the Start Menu. Also, by definition, Tablet Mode means that only the Start Menu will appear when the Windows key is pressed.

    If you want an on-screen update on your weather, you can install either the W10 Weather (fed by MSN), The Weather Channel (WU's sister company), or AccuWeather. If they send notifications (weather watches or warnings, etc.), they can be set to appear in your Action Center pop-out sidebar.
