I found out why HWinfo keeps re-enabling hidden sensors: when the parent category is disabled and then re-enabled all its child sensors are enabled as well, including hidden sensors.

For the time being my workaround is to not hide the problematic sensors, but only disable them. This wastes screen-space, of course.

I find the new drop-down menu on the Welcome Screen rather inconvenient. Instead of one click it now needs two clicks and aiming for the correct option is a bit more "involved" as the options only show up for aiming once the drop-down is opened.

There are cases where hiding a sensor does only disable it temporarily. It may not re-enable with the next start of HWinfo, but at some point it does (maybe on PC reboot, haven't checked). Here is an example: Unhiding and then hiding the sensor disables it again, but later it will be...

For me going back to the Beta v8.17 solved the issue and then updating again to 8.20 kept the sensor intact. Windows 11 24H2 installed between originally using v8.17 and updating to 8.20, no BIOS updates. Still on 24H2 and v8.20, though, now that it is working again.

I installed 8.20 (- 5640) over the beta again, enabled Debug mode on first start (via System Summary before the sensors where detected), but this time the sensor category did not vanish. Multiple restarts and it stays available. :rolleyes:

Ahoi. The latest v8.20 release removed a sensor category (including sensors) on my Gigabyte Z790 board. That category is still present in Beta v8.17-5620 and was present for all versions before. The missing sensors are not listed in the Layout list either. v8.20: v8.17:

Great, thank! :)

Hello. I would like to have the Average column be used for the "Performance Limit Reasons" sensors. Since these only display Yes and No the most sensible thing would likely be to have a number value between 0 and 1 for averages!? Thanks and regards!

Hm, none of the various applications I tried identifies it as ESC key, though. This includes the Autohotkey script window that closes on ESC, but not on the key combination. So only HWinfo seems to interpret it as ESC then. For an Y-cruncher Terminal window the CTLR + Pause combination closes...

In Powershell the right CTRL + Pause opens Debug mode. The left CTRL + Pause just literally output "C". In CMD the left combination does a literal "^C" output while the right combination does a new line. In one software I noticed that both combinations skip through a dropdown list of choices...

I disabled my Autohotkey script already, no change. Same goes for changing from German to English layout. I have some keys remapped, but neither the right CTRL nor Pause key is part of that. What I did just notice, though, is that using left CTRL + Pause does the same, despite the left CTRL...

Happens with the Sensors and Summary windows, but not the main window. I usually only have the Sensors window open, so I didn't notice the main window being exempt.

Hello. I don't know if this is intentional, but CTRL-Pause exits HWinfo. ;-)

Thanks for the clarification! :)
