- Rainmeter is installed and ran right after installation
- Rainmeter is executed as administrator
Otherwise, it only displays 0 on both charge and discharge rates.
I thought I got away from this issue with the newest betas, but I was apparently wrong - probably because I only checked if the values are displayed right after installing+running immediately afterwards, otherwise disregarding things as I keep my laptop on AC power anyway and I was busy with tweaking other skins in the meantime.
Do you have any solution to this? Of course, if you are able to replicate it. Just replace ACPI\PNP0C0A\1_0 with the name of your battery instance in Permon.msc (if you have a battery, that is). I'm using the latest Rainmeter beta on Windows 10 Enterprise v1803, on a UAC disabled administrator account - I already specified this on another topic, but just in case you need the specs, there you have them.
