Got it to work finally. I had tried doing that several times long time ago but it just wouldn't remove. Glad it is now gone.
Thanks all

Or uninstall Get Started all together from the device

Menu -> More -> App Manager -> Uninstall -> find Get Started and tap Uninstall

It will save you several MB as well.

If you have just removed the widget as per post 2 or 3, then:

1. click on open space on desktop
2. click on gear in upper right corner
3. click on desktop menu at top
4. click Add widget
5. Click Get started

if you have removed it via app manager

1. open app manager
2. download
3. Get started
4. as above if it doesn't show automatically

You can download it from the app manager, if it's not showing in there you've probably got it installed.

Not sure why you'd want it back though.
