RE: Where did my sidebar go? [Windows 7] | Posted at 12:19 PM
If you noticed that your sidebar will not start or doesn't work anymore there may be a simple solution.
If you have the Logitech camera software installed, that is the culprit. To fix the issue simply:
- Click the "Change Settings" button.
- Click the Application Preferences button, then Settings under "Video Effects application support."
- In the list, remove "sidebar.exe" (I removed everything, as seen below).
- Restart your computer
That should fix it! I had the same problem and after doing this it finally worked.
If your sidebar isn't working and you don't have the Logitech cam software, I can't help you.
