@ Oliver Klozoff

The code you pasted works fine with Windows 64-bit although I suggest you replace all the :s at the beginning of comment lines with ;- and delete the two StringAlign= lines.

That done, I suggest you download Top Processes Version 2.2.0.1 and install it again.

I have the following observations regarding the usage of the plugin on Windows 8 64bit:

1) There are times when it shows a process usage that is completely wrong (see attached screenshot). For resolving this issue, I just have to refresh the skin and everything is fine and dandy. Can this issue please be looked into so it can be resolved?

2) I notice that the percentage is in one decimal place but I would like to have it show 2 decimal places so how can I change that?

The code for that section is as follows:

Code: Select all

[MeasureTopProcessText]
Measure = Plugin
Plugin = TopProcesses.dll
ReQuery = 1
GlobalIgnoredProcesses = _Total|dwm|Idle
MetricType = CPU
ProcNums = 0 - 1
Format = "s(%pName, 0, 10 )"
UpdateDivider = 5
I am having another skin using the same plugin which reports the Memory usage and it works fine.

Got it working on Windows 8 (not RT).

It's showing up about 2 inches below the top of my desktop, even though the Y coordinate is set to 0.

I'd also love to figure out how to get a background color.

Does anyone have a copy of TopProcesses_2.2.0.1.zip they could share as this URL no longer works?

Thanks in advance.

When I tried to install Top Processes, Norton Internet Security flagged topprocesses.dll because it has "a low reputation score based on analyzing data from Symantec’s community of users."

Maybe it's because of issues reported above. Is it stable now?

That is due to a limited number of people using the plugin, so it has not built enough "reputation" with Norton to avoid being trapped as something "new" and thus "suspect". You can safely set an exception in Norton for it. I actually have no opinion as to how reliable or stable it is, as I don't and have never used it. That is not what Norton is weighing in on though...
