Calculator widget on notification panel
I'd like to know if anyone found this problem after the upgrade to macOS High Sierra.
The calculator widget on notification panel presents a bug: presents by default the number 475 (not zero).
Scenario 1: (re)start the computer, go to the notification panel and the calculator presents the number 475.
Scenario 2: Press "ac" and the calculator goes to 'zero'. Good. I can make calculations... everything fine. But: a) if I left the notification panel and come back in a short time (5 seconds), the calculator presents the number from the last action; b) but if I come back later (for example one minute), the calculator presents the number 475 (again).
Anyone have a similar bug?
MacBook Pro with Retina display, macOS High Sierra (10.13), null

Go to folder:
~/Library/Containers/com.apple.ncplugin.calculator/Data/Library/Preferences
and delete the file com.apple.ncplugin.calculator.plist
(or make a backup of it and then delete it)
This file is not present in a new installation of macOS High Sierra or in the user library of a new user account. If you open it (for example with Xcode) you'll see that it contains the stuck number.
After that your calculator widget should function normally again.
