Missing widgets and apps on Note 3, 4.2.2

I have a note 3, and last night the battery died. When I plugged it back in, a bunch of my apps and widgets were missing from my home screen, and at least 5 or 6 widgets that I normally use were missing from my widget menu as well. Now whenever I restart my phone, the same apps go missing from the home screen, and the widgets are still nowhere to be found. I use google now launcher, btw, but the widgets are still missing if I switch back to the default launcher.

Fixed the problem. Deleted google now launcher and restarted.

Do you mean that you have resolved the problem and it resulted from google now launcher and power failure?
