Hi, Sorry, but this does not accomplish what I want.
If I follow the steps you outline, the widget still appears when: Bring up dashboard widget. Press VO-F2 twice. Arrow down to widget menu bar. Right Arrow. Down Arrow through installed widgets. The item I just tried to remove using the method you described is still there. Are you saying this works for you? What people have been describing is how to delete a widget from the list that appears for running widgets, but not from the list of installed widgets. I know that you can't remove Apple's installed widgets, only hide them. But they aren't hiding using this method. Thanks to everyone for your attempts to help on this.
