Thanks Mike, that did it (with caveats below).

I deleted the prefs stack, then downloaded the "Widget Installer File" 
(under 'download and ide' in the Products section under LC Create, ran 
it, ignored the error messages, quit and then ran it again.

Everything now seems to be working again for LCClassic 11.0

caveat - that doesn't install the widgets for LC 10.0.4, so I may need 
to find the summer bundle to get the widgets back for older versions. 
However, I intend doing everything in LCC 11.0 from now onwards, so 
hopefully will have no need to go back.

Many thanks !

Alex.
