I suggest you disable "Windows Gadgets Platform", restart your machine, re-enable it and check if the problem persists.
To do that, go to the Control Panel, click the Programs heading, and choose Turn Windows features on or off. Find the Windows Gadget Platform option and remove the check mark from the box to its left, then click the “OK” button.
I Found One, the CPU usage widget.
- Open the task manager.
- Go to performance tab.
- Right click on left bar. as shown below. Or Double click on there.
