Coreglow groups system readings into a rounded panel with gradient rings, load bars, and hover highlights. It follows the Windows light or dark theme and offers selectable accent presets. Alongside CPU, memory, and storage information, it includes network activity, conditional Wi-Fi and battery sections, and weather.

What this skin includes

  • Displays one load bar per logical processor.
  • Reads GPU usage and dedicated VRAM use through Windows counters.
  • Shows C: usage and live read/write speeds.
  • Battery colors change below 30% and 10%.
  • Uses wttr.in for weather and ipify for external IP.
  • Header accent control cycles through five saved presets.

Setup and limits

Download Coreglow_x.y.rmskin from Releases, double-click it, and select Install. Alternatively, copy Coreglow-backup/Coreglow into the documented Rainmeter Skins folder, refresh all, and load Coreglow.ini through Manage. Run Core Temp and install its Rainmeter plugin for CPU sensor readings. Right-click Edit variables for customization.

Requires Rainmeter 4.5.6 or newer; CPU temperature, power, clock, and name depend on running Core Temp plus CoreTemp.dll. Weather and external IP use online services. Preserve Coreglow.ini's UTF-16 LE encoding when editing. GPU temperature, a three-day forecast, and high-DPI scaling are roadmap items. Current Windows-build compatibility has not been independently verified; this research did not install or execute the skin.
