If you can do me a favor, I'd appreciate it... if you still see this, can you enter the command "quser" at a command prompt and post the results? It should look something like this:
Code: Select all
USERNAME SESSIONNAME ID STATE IDLE TIME LOGON TIME
><username> console 1 Active none 8/4/2017 6:29 AM
I'm wondering what your logon time date format looks like...
Don't forget that quser.exe is only available in Windows "pro" versions.

It is? Noooooooooo!
Well, crap. Back to the drawing board then. <sigh>

Yeah, and I have found no working alternative for it. I can find no way to get the login date and time of a "user account" that is distinct from the system boot time, other than quser.exe. All you can do is check for the version of windows, and if it is not "pro" or higher, then disable and hide the entire thing.

Another alternative would be to watch for an error message from RunCommand, and if found, just use the system uptime for both the system and user values.
"is not recognized"

I like that idea. Trying to determine "Pro-vs.-nonPro" on everything from XP to Server 2016 could get a little gnarly.
Thanks for the suggestion!

So something like this perhaps...
Code: Select all

I need the initial "check" measure due to the Substitute and FinishAction on the real deal.

This problem is different. The issue is that quser.exe is using the "locale" for the date and time format in Windows.
Yours is:
2017-07-15 03:43
Mine is:
8/4/2017 10:23 AM
This makes it a bunch harder to parse and convert to timestamps.
I'm not entirely sure this bit of information is worth the effort it will take to get right on all systems...

It would be complex in the extreme to get all the "International" stuff you would need from the registry, and then tailor the Substitute and TimeStampFormat options to match. I think the best bet is to just let it do its thing, based on the default US-English locale settings, and if the resulting value is an unreasonable number like >365 days, just bail out to using Uptime. I think it is pretty safe to say that you haven't been logged on for 417 years...

Thanks for making these nice AddGadget monitors
I have used them since they were originally made for Windows 7 I think.
I have just loaded the latest rainmeter beta, and your latest AddGadgets.
But the Drives meter shows 100% load on all drives. I can not seem to find out how to fix this.
Is HWiNFO needed for this. Did not use that in an older version.
Have you seen this before?
