If you encounter issues during installation or while running the widget, try these steps:
Widget does not appear Check your system tray near the clock. Sometimes the widget minimizes there instead of opening on the desktop. Right-click the icon in the tray and select "Show Widget."
Data is missing Verify that your internet connection is stable. The widget needs a connection to pull your latest quota and credit information. You can force a refresh by clicking the "Refresh Data" option in the right-click menu.
Slow performance Close other applications that use high amounts of memory. If the widget still runs slow, check for pending Windows updates.
Installation errors If the installer fails, turn off your antivirus program for a few minutes. Sometimes security software blocks new apps from running script installers. Remember to turn your antivirus back on after the installation finishes.
