I think there is a third-party library that could be used to create a plug-in, but it is not free and I'm not sure of the license terms.

Link? Name?

Link? Name?

FiddlerCore... https://www.telerik.com/fiddlercore. Only $3000 per year! Cha-ching!
NetBalancer... https://netbalancer.com. Only $49.95. Appears to have an API you could hit with WebParser?

Yikes... both of those also sound overkill for what we need here, never mind the licensing part. Quite a shame there's no free alternative.

I think i come bearing bad news. Latest HWiNFO seems to have been heavily gimped in the last update pushing a paid version: https://www.hwinfo.com/version-history/
As a result the GPU widget no longer seems to work after updating. I will be reverting to the previous version but this needs to be investigated further.

A major update to the Gadgets has been released!

NOTE:

• The CPU Meter and GPU Meter have undergone major revisions to work with HWiNFO 7.x. You will need to install and reconfigure HWiNFO and reconfigure your HWiNFO settings.
• If you were using the compact version of the Weather Meter, upgrading will cause your skin to disappear. Reselect the skin and then check the new Use Compact Gadget option in the Settings.

Great work , looks awesome on the new ultrawide - up until today I was still using the original windows gadgets!

Got everything setup the way I want except the calendar, I would like to remove the gray boxes around the days of the week and just have the black background. Can you point me in the direction of where/how I would make this change?
