Locking computer glitch?

Post by Blizzie »

Whenever I lock my computer (Vista Ultimate 64bit) the weather, sun, and location becomes something like the attached screenshot and cannot reconnect even if I refresh. I have to exit and reopen Rainmeter.

Sounds like a bug...

I am going to move this over to the Bug Forum.

Thanks for the documentation :D

I am having the exact same bug. I have a weather skin and an RSS feed for twitter. It seems that after a lock either neither will come back or one of the two will come back. I am pretty sure I have the same issue if I sleep/hibernate as well.

It only seems to effect the skins that I use that connect to the internet.

I think it's related to the sleep crash: http://forum.rainmeter.net/viewtopic.php?f=20&t=903

Except for this, Rainmeter doesn't die or crash. It just sits there unable to connect to the web to retrieve the necessary data for those specific plugins.

Blizzie, If you are still having the problem the new 1.1 beta version has this fixed as far as I can tell. I have been using it all day and everything is updating correctly even when coming out of a system lock
