Calendar widget for my Windows desktop?

[Elliot B.]

Attached below is a screenshot of the calendar widget that I have on my Android phone.

 

I have several calendars integrated (Google, Microsoft, TV Rage.com etc.)

 

I want something similar on my Windows 10 desktop.

 

Any ideas?

Both Rainmeter or Rainlendar can do that if you're wanting it on the desktop itself versus a live tile, although I can't comment on Win10 compatibility.  Rainmeter's a general purpose tool (free) and can be customized to do near anything, while Rainlendar is specifically for calendars, but isn't free for some functionality.

Very annoying that I can't do what a want without a Pro license - and there's no way to try it first ("it" being Google Calendar support etc.)

Supposedly you can run the Pro version in a trial mode, copypasted: "You can install and test the Pro version before you make the decision. The Pro version is fully functional even without the license except that events from network, Outlook and Google calendars will have string [unregistered] in front of them."  You can do Google calendars and such with Rainmeter too, there's a few skins out there that do it, can tweak those to suit your needs,  note that if I recall you need to make sure the skin is a newer one due to Google API changes.  Poke around DeviantArt and the like.

rainmeter is free.  I would check that out, there are a ton of skins out there.  Find one that contains the calendar you like and disable the rest of the features, if that is what you want.
