HWiNFO is hooked with MSI Afterburner but it won't start by itself when double clicking on MSI Afterburner

HWiNFO would start compelety by itself when double clicking on MSI Afterburner since MSI Afterburner uses a couple of HWiNFO's sensors (I've added HWiNFO's sensors to MSI Afterburner through the monitoring tab, active plugins in MSI Afterburner) but now after doing a fresh OS install and applying the same settings to both apps, HWiNFO is no longer starting by itself when starting MSI Afterburner.

All I did was double click only on MSI Afterburner and HWiNFO would start with it directly by itself which is something that is supposed to happen as stated by HWiNFO's plugin in MSI Afterburner:

And here are my HWiNFO settings:

Can't figure out why now HWiNFO is refusing to start by itself as it should when MSI Afterburner is started.
 
This question should be probably asked at MSI Afterburner forums.
The developer of MSI Afterburner replied on the matter saying:

"Recent HwInfo 8.xx updates changed registry path where HwINFO installer stores installed applicaiton location ("HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\HWiNFO® 64_is1" versus "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\HWiNFO64_is1" before), so plugin won't be able to see if HwINFO is installed, where it is installed and automatically start it. Updated versions of plugin will be required to support new HwINFO installers."
