With this beta (r2211) update, top process stop working?

Here's part of the skin code:

Code: Select all

[Variables]
CPUExclude="Idle;dwm;system;wmpnetwk;csrss;svchost;lsass"

[MeasureTopProcessName]
Measure=Plugin
Plugin=AdvancedCPU
TopProcess=2
CPUExclude=#CPUExclude#

[MeasureTopProcessNameCPU]
Measure=Plugin
Plugin=AdvancedCPU
TopProcess=1
CPUExclude=#CPUExclude#

[CPUprocess]
Meter=STRING
MeasureName=MeasureTopProcessName
MeasureName2=MeasureTopProcessNameCPU
MeterStyle=Style2
X=158
Y=22
Text="Top process: %1 (%2%)"
Percentual=1
Any idea why?

Regards

Works fine for me on r2211 with your exact code. Check About / Log and About / Skin to see if there are any errors in the log, and what the values of your measures are being set to.

Are the measures in About / Skins being set to any value?

Yeah, that's not good. You might try completely exiting Rainmeter and restarting it.

I suspect (strongly) that your Windows Perfmon "Performance Counter Library" has gotten corrupted in Windows. This is not an uncommon issue that Windows has occasionally.

You can fix it by:

1) Start a CMD.exe console window in administrator mode. (If you are not sure how to do this, let me know)
2) Type in lodctr /r and hit enter.

That should fix it.
