Re: Rainmeter crashing versions 4.5.14 - 4.5.15
Hi Brian. Now that I've had time I've tried the version 4.5.16 prerelease and the music skins no longer give me problems when closing or opening them. At the moment it works, before the operating system was blocked, perhaps because I did not restart when updating the version.
For some reason, version 4.5.15 is giving problems with high processor usage when closing or opening skins, causing crashes, at least for me.
I use Windows 11 Pro 21H2 on an Intel I7 11700F 2.50 Mhz
Thanks for everything.

Hi Brian,
WIn10 64 pro (21H1 19043 2006)
I'm not sure the skin run standalone...
This is one of the skins, but it relies on some external variables...
and here's the variable,inc (gets usually written by another "settings skin")

Re: Rainmeter crashing versions 4.5.14 - 4.5.15
@HiTBit-PA:
Otherwise, it looks like your issue is fixed.
@Pflosch:
I can't replicate this on Windows 7 and 10. Your test skin works for me. Both loading and unloading of the skin.
Are you sure you installed version 4.5.16?

Does the high processor usage happen with the 4.5.16 version?

I also have this problem. Also, I have a problem with"bad_module_info has stopped working" and when I debug it, that can't happen. I thought it was from my PC but I realized I had just updated the Rainmeter.

Re: Rainmeter crashing versions 4.5.14 - 4.5.15
Hello. Processor usage increased when closing or opening skins, but the image would freeze and I couldn't see the system skin. My motherboard (Asus gaming) has some LEDs that change to red when it exceeds 90%, something that never happened with 5.4.14. As I told you before, it seems that the prerelease is more stable.

It says "4.5.15.3678" after I install "Rainmeter-4.5.16.3681-prerelease"
... sooo... I think maybe not quite mostly a bit.... but I wouldn't bet my arm on it...
