Windows 10: New Core Temp does not work properly in Win 10 Pro

Hi folks!

I just can't get the new Core Temp version 1.0 RC7 to work properly with my Win 10 Pro RTM installation. I am using it with Desktop Gadgets All CPU Meter. I can get it to do everything but load itself at Windows 10 startup. The option to select it in the Options menu will not stay checked once I press the Apply button. As soon as I open the application again to see if it is checked, it has for some reason become unchecked, and when I restart my PC I have the same problem. I have also tried running it from the Start Up folder in the C: Program Data folders but it won't start from there either.

ARGGHH!!!

I have Googled the problem and several people say the new 1.0 RC7 version does work with the 10240 release--but not for me. I have even tried running it in compatibility Mode for Win 7 and 8 but still no joy!

Has anyone else had this problem and figured out the solution? Is there perhaps a corrupted Registry value that needs to be changed?

Thanks,



PS I have also tried PC Meter but it won't start or hook into my All CPU desktop gadget to read the CPU core temps either. And I have tried the Compatibility Mode changes as well, but still no joy--again!

Core temp application is causing huge memory usage in Windows 10 on Surface Pro 3

Hi,

in my Surface Pro 3 with Windows 10 and latest updates installed I experience the following issue:

When I try to check CPU temperature via Core Temp program, the memory of the system goes to 99% (8 GB memory) and then disk usage becomes huge as well (swap file?)

When I force-terminate the Core Temp program everything becomes fine, mem usage 36%.

Core Temp program version 1.0 RC6

It looks like a memory leak and most likely it is in Windows 10 software or Surface Pro firmware as the Core Temp program worked fine on Windows 8.

Thanks.

Br,

Alex

 

OK, I found out how to autostart Core Temp using the Task Scheduler as shown in the first post on this page: ALCPU Forums Vista - Guide

He says to do the following, and it worked perfectly for me, (though when I opened Task Scheduler it gave me about 20 successive Error messages that I had to clock OK on before I could actual reach the Task Scheduler).

• Run core temp and disable 'Start Core Temp with windows' enable 'start minimized'
  enable 'enable plugins' if using the vista sidebar gadget or anything that needs CT access.
  all other options are at the discretion of the user.
  Click OK.
• Remove the program from the Startup folder or any RUN/STARTUP registry key. - Disabling 'start CT with Windows' should actually have removed the registry key entry anyway.
• Move Core Temp.exe to a directory that is NOT 'Programs x86' or anywhere else controlled by Windows. I created a directory in my 'Users/my login name' directory called 'startupapps' and put 'Core Temp.exe' in there. (Note: strictly speaking this is not required, but some have reported they needed to do this so I simply wrote what I tested and checked as working.)
• Launch the Task Scheduler (Control Panel -> Administration Tools -> Task Scheduler)
• From the Actions panel on the right, select Create Task...
• Give the Task a description of 'CoreTemp' (or anything else you feel like if you want to be cryptic)
• Go to the Security Options on the General tab
• Select an user account with administrative privileges
• Select the radio button Run only when user is logged on
• Check the box Run with highest privileges
• Go to the Triggers tab and click New...
• In Begin the task, select At log on
• In the Settings options, select All users
• In the Advanced Settings options, check the box Enabled
• Click OK to close the dialog
• Go to the Actions tab and click New...
• For Action, select Start a program
• In the Settings options, browse for the Program/Script you want to execute on startup
• Click OK to close the dialog
• Go to the Settings tab
• Check the box Run task as soon as possible after a scheduled start is missed
• Uncheck the box Stop the task if it runs longer than
• Click OK to save and close the task properties
• Logout.
• Login.
• Wait - Core Temp will eventually load - usually instantly, but may be up to 30 seconds or so.

Core Temp will now start when you login *without* any request for permissions even when UAC is enabled.


Though he wrote this for the Windows Vista OS, it worked perfectly for me in Windows 10 Pro too!

The Core Temp 1.0 RC7 (allegedly written specifically for Windows 10) can be found here:

Todd, I know this is an old thread - but I just found it by Googling for CoreTemp. I want to thank you for posting and making such detailed instructions. I got CoreTemp installed and working on my Windows 10 pc which I just updated. Running great. Thanks again. John
