Bug 1.18 Keeps flashing up on desktop

[fredtgreco]

In the last few weeks, CoreTemp has been flashing up on my desktop while running minimized. The window does not stay visible, but it flashes and goes away. I can't figure out how to stop this.

I've got the same issue.

FWIW I downgraded to 1.17.1 to get it stable. Many of us would like an update but the author does not respond.

I find 1.17.1 is just as bad.

I think I'm going to have to look for an alternative.

Guys, you all might want to email the author about this issue:
Arthur Liberman
arthur_liberman@hotmail.com

I am sure he reads his emails much more often than this forum.

There is a new update, v1.18.1. The point release addresses the update bug and some others. It may have a fix for this.

I am afraid the Release Notes do not mention the bug of "flashing up on desktop".
So, most likely it is not fixed, at least in this update/version.

You're probably right. Certainly there could be no sense in trying it before deciding it will not be fixed.

Can anyone please better explain what sort of flashing you are talking about? Maybe a screenshot or a short screen recording?
Which OS are you using, which GPU (maybe related to gfx driver?)
If possible, estimation when this issue started for you.
It's probable that there's another program that somehow causes this to happen, because Core Temp does respond to some potentially obscure Windowing events.

Guys, please could you also post your Core Temp Settings --> General tab, Windows Taskbar tab, Display tab screenshots?
It would be nice to know if all with this issue share the same Settings, OR if they are different.

No one wants this fixed!?

You're probably right. Certainly there could be no sense in trying it before deciding it will not be fixed.

Um, no.. I never said this issue should be not fixed.

It is not our job to decide, but of the author of Core Temp.

[Naki]

Nothing?
