My apologies for the delayed response.

The "Just the Text.ini" file appears to be in the correct folder. Manage Rainmeter > MiniWeather > Just the Text > Just the Text.ini > Edit => opens in Notepad. Then File Save.

In the "\Users\xxx\Documents\Rainmeter\Skins\MiniWeather\Just the Text" folder, the "Just the Text.ini" file displays the updated date / time. The "Just the Text.ini" file is being updated.

This https://snipboard.io/VSLsjC.jpg is how it used to appear. This is how it appears today https://snipboard.io/O2QtqZ.jpg.

Perhaps there is a newer skin to display the outside temperature as it did before?

I've tried all the suggestions, but still no weather data. I Changed APIKey variable refreshed and still no data displayed. I'm about to give up.

Hi, don't give up. What skin are you using? Can you upload your skin (rmskin-format)?

As far as I could tell, the skin was recently updated by eclectic-tech:

That should normally work right away, without any modifications needed.

Interesting would be to get the not-working package, existing on steveorino's computer. So I'm asking for the same thing which was previously asked for: steveorino, please pack the whole config as you have it now and upload the package. A .rmskin file would be nice as ikarus1969 asked, but a simple .zip or .rar would be same way good for us, just to have the whole content with your not-working settings.

Yincognito,

This https://www.deviantart.com/eclectic-tech/art/MiniWeather-780701124 does work!

How do I change the location?

Right click the skin and go to Custom skin actions. In the opening submenu you can choose the temperature scale (Celsius or Fahrenheit) or, to set the location, click Edit Weather Variables. You have to enter the geographical coordinates to the opening file, as Latitude and Longitude variables. Additionally you can set there the language (by the Language variable) and the used units (Units variabele, but doesn't really have to set this, because setting this variable has the same effect as setting Celsius or Fahrenheit, as mentioned above - even if by this setting there is one more possibility).
Don1t forget to refresh the skin if you set the location into the above file.

When I right click "Just the Text.ini" I see https://snipboard.io/RsZUIa.jpg. Custom is not an option.

Right-click the desktop display, NOT the file...
