hello,
after having the same problem with the weather plugin, I found your subject to correct (APIKEY correction)
I also noticed an element on the unit of measurement of atmospheric pressure
in English-speaking countries, I don't know
but in French-speaking countries, the unit is [hPa] - HECTOPASCAL ( SI unit )
the old unit was [mb] - MILLIBAR
Recently for some reason it no longer shows CPU usage %. Just shows 0.0%, but shows usage in task manager. I have all external applications checked off and still can't figure out why the rainmeter widget won't calculate usage but everything else works. I have full version of AIDA and it was working before. 12700K with Msi z690 Edge

Microsoft broke NtQuerySystemInformation(SystemProcessorPerformanceInformation) in the 22H2 update for Windows 11 which makes the CPU-RAM skin show incorrect data due to the way it gathers load from the system using processor time. This is a widespread bug in Windows 11 that effects all third-party monitor tools including their own Xbox Game Bar, MSI Afterburner (has a Beta version with a temp fix), Nvidia Performance Overlay etc.
So, I've updated the CPU-RAM skin in this suite for myself to use utility performance counters instead and thought I'd share so it now shows correct load information as the task manager does. From what I've gathered this is a better way to do it anyways (more correct). However, Microsoft may or may not fix the bug so it might work as before in a future patch.
Just moved to a new build on Win11. I cannot get the weather skin to populate. When I search for location, it finds it, but when I click on it, nothing in the skin loads. I have reloaded rainmeter and rebooted. The rainmeter log says invalid TimeStampFormat, but I assume that fixes itself if you get the location populated correctly? Did something break here with Win11 22H2?

Go to Documents\Rainmeter\Skins\Rainformer\@Resources, open the Variables file and in the Weather section replace the existing API key with this:
Thank you. I realized that I posted this weather thing in the wrong thread, but that API key change worked. Thanks.
I do have the rainformer CPU skin reporting incorrectly on Win11 22H2 tho. Replaced that code in the first post, reloaded rainmeter and it still seems to show about half the real percent of windows CPU. Anything else that I am missing?
