Feature request - Top 5 processors shown in gadget

Post by kilarasser@gmail.com »

I stumbled across a Windows gadget which shows the top 5 most ressource intensive processes. I have both gadgets running now, but it would be nice to have them all in one. I know this is super specific which is also why i am willing to donate to make it happen since i know very few people use windows gadgets in 2021.

I have attached a screenshot showing how the gadget looks:

It seems Windows 11 is (will be?) bringing back Gadgets, called Widgets now but very similar to the Windows Vista/7 Gadgets.
Would you consider reactivating Core Temp Gadget development, if Microsoft allows 3rd party Widgets in Windows 11 at some point?
I am unsure if it is allowed now, but my guess is if not, they will allow it in a next Windows 11 OS update. :)
(For now, 1st party i.e. Microsoft's own Widgets are allowed for sure.)

I can look into it, but I have my doubts about the feasibility of it considering the way the original gadget operated.
If they use some sort of sandbox, it just won't work at all from a technical standpoint.
