Restrict Featured Posts Widget to Category (not Subcategory) Posts?

[exelexys]

Featured Posts Widget displays posts assigned to subcategories in addition to posts assigned to the drop-down category selected. For example, in the linked image, posts assigned to subcategories of Events (e.g., Corporate) are displayed.

Is there a way to restrict output of Featured Posts Widget to display only posts assigned to the category selected, perhaps through a filter?

Thanks in advance

This should work for you:

Install Genesis Sandbox Featured Content Widget and use it in place of the Featured Posts Widget. In GSFCW, select the parent category in the "Taxonomy and Terms" dropdown list, then specify the IDs of the sub-categories to be excluded in the "Exclude Terms by ID" text box.
