The .gg file extension applies to multiple programs, and the one you will most likely be come across is called a Google Gadget which is for the Google Desktop program, available free as a download for either the Mac OS or Microsoft Windows operating systems. Google desktop itself is for the most part a platform of sorts; by default it does little more than adding desktop search functionality to your computer for a more streamlined internet search experience. It is in its expandability and upgrade ability that this software shows its true colors and potential, allowing the user to easily add what are commonly referred to as "widgets" to his or her desktop. Widgets are small programs which usually run continuously in the background and serve a specific function. The jobs these little programs do are about as vast as one can imagine. There exist everything from news readers, weather forecasters, dictionaries, calculators, address books, calendars, and the list continues for miles. In addition to being accessible from the desktop, many Google Gadgets are able to be posted on web pages for remote access.

My computer was always popping up with registry errors and I couldnt get rid of them. Regtask did the job for me and took less then 5 minutes to speed up my computer.

I have to admit I'm no computer geek. When something goes wrong, I usually have to call someone to fix it and it costs me a lot of money. When my computer started to experience random freezes, I just used Regtask and now it works normally again.

My computer is 5 years old and runs extremely slow now. I was a bit sceptical about using Regtask, but just decided to give it a shot in the end and it worked out fantastically for me.

All Google Gadgets are available for free download online, but you must have Google Desktop installed to use them. They do not operate as standalone executables. Since their content is not predominantly text, you will not be able to view the contents of .gg files for Google Desktop if you attempt to get information from them using a text editor.

More Info Regarding File Extension Gg
There is another type of file that uses the .gg extension, although it may seem more obscure. In a way it is, if you are looking at the sheer number of people using these files regularly. The Sega Game Gear is a Japanese hand held video game system that was released in 1992. It was never nearly as popular as the game boy, although it did have a very loyal fan base and was pioneering in many respects, including being the third color hand held console in history. As one would expect, the system's popularity has decreased steadily over time; electronics technology has progressed at an exponential rate over the years, leaving relatively new devices to be considered obsolete quite quickly.
Since it has become rather impractical to carry around a large Game Gear when more advanced and portable options now exist, an increasing number of people have resorted to playing software versions of their favorite Game Gear games for the sake of convenience. A software image of any console game that is made playable on a personal computer is called a "rom." To play a rom, you need the software image of the console the game you're playing corresponds to. There are emulators available for almost every classic console in existence, and popular systems generally have multiple emulators you can choose from. Since emulators are generally reverse engineered by people in their free time, the compatibility can vary from program to program. If a rom doesn't work well with one, you may achieve better results with another.
Since the Game Gear title library is rather limited compared to the libraries of more popular systems, there are relatively few standalone emulators available for this particular system. Still, there is a healthy selection of Game Gear emulators available for download that will readily accept your .gg files. Programs that allow you to play multiple consoles are also available, and one example of this is "Fusion," a free, multi-system emulator. Another potential option is "Gens Plus!" If you're only interested in playing .gg files and don't want the added bloat of the additional console emulation, a Game Gear only emulator that is also available for free download online is called "SMSplus." A quick internet search will yield you even more results.
If you are still having trouble, even after ensuring that your computer has the necessary programs correctly installed, it may be that the file you are trying to open is either corrupted or mis-labelled. One's first reasonable course of action would be to ensure that there was no problem during the transmission of the file you are trying to open. Try downloading the file in question again and if necessary from a different source. If this doesn't work, the only option likely to solve your problem would be a re-installation of the program, again perhaps downloaded from a different
