Hi Brama,

If you are getting an error 8 with the GPU Monitor gadget being frozen because it can not load GPUMonitor.exe, then you are going to have the same issue with HWiNFOMonitor.exe. Because it has never run at all, the data will report missing. Once it runs at least once, the gadget will report data, but it will not update.

Something is preventing your scripting engine from launching those files. You need to figure out that problem, or use the manual workaround mentioned earlier in the thread (launch HWiNFOMonitor.exe manually whenever you run the gadget, or if the gadget is always running, just add a shortcut to your startup folder). It is located in the "C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows Sidebar\Gadgets\HWiNFOMonitor.gadget" folder

Probably some GPO of the domain could prevent the launch of .exe files from scripting engine.
I will try the workariund.

Thanks,

Hello!

Can somebody tell me where are the customiations (settings) stored for this gadget ?
I've made a backup from whole windows sidebar folder in localappdata, but customizations aren't restored when I installed a new os.

You need to restore the "C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Local\GPUMonitor" folder.
