Thank you. Great tool. I can easily check how much cpu and ram it's taking Corel Painter without looking the desktop or moving the focus. Thanks again.

This is the artiest task bar holy sht you got 3 colours on (!!no way!!) a straight bar and this is literally the best there is. no cool designs or artwork. not even a bunch of freaking squiggles but a straight freaking bar with some colours. I just wanted a cool awesome background to the internet and my taskbar but not even the artists could come up with anything better then this. I just lost all faith in this, I mean its only the thing that hangs around all the time at the edge of everything!!!!!! no big deal or anything

If you want backgrounds and crap, then make your own program. I actually built this for myself and my friends wanted me to release it; if you don't like it then don't use it.

I disabled both cpu and ram meter and attempted to save. Boom! System.DivideByZeroException somewhere inside RAM_CPU_Taskbar.frmBars.SetBarDimensions

Also, you seem to store the settings in the registry (or some temp place i could not find). So I am not able to restart the program (it will just crash at startup).

DivideByZero is a very unnecessary error, please fix this :D

Other than that, it seems to be a very cool tool, looking foreward to a bugfix ;)

Yeah, the new version will be saved to a .ini file inside the folder rather than the registry since it's slow...

Thanks for the report, i'll make sure not to do that in the rewrite :D
