v0.2.1

Pulse v0.2.1 — a big update to the Performance page, plus a Settings page and one-click "make me the default Task Manager."

Download

  • Pulse-Setup.exe — installer (per-user, no admin needed)
  • Pulse-portable-x64.zip — unzip and run Pulse.exe, no install

Self-contained (bundles .NET + Windows App SDK). Windows 10 (20H2+) / 11, x64.

New in this release

  • GPU, power & temperature — on NVIDIA cards, the Performance page now shows utilization, memory, temperature, power draw in watts, core clock and fan speed (via NVML). Non-NVIDIA GPUs show utilization.
  • Disk & Network graphs — active time, read/write, and send/receive throughput.
  • System info line — CPU model, cores, RAM, GPU, OS build and uptime at a glance.
  • Settings page with "Make Pulse the default Task Manager" — one switch redirects Ctrl+Shift+Esc, the taskbar menu and Run → taskmgr to Pulse (reversible; one admin approval). Plus an adjustable update speed.
  • Polish — gridded Performance graphs, an app icon, and smoother, flicker-free refreshes.

Still here from before

Live process list (CPU / memory / threads / PID / status, sortable, End task), full CPU history graph with a per-logical-core grid, and the Startup apps manager.

Note on SmartScreen
