v1.0.0
ThermalWatch - Release v1.0.0
This is the initial release of ThermalWatch, a lightweight, silent hardware thermal guardian for Windows. It runs directly from your system tray and monitors your CPU and GPU temperatures in real-time.
Key Features
- Zero-Bloat Tray Monitoring: Silent and minimal resource footprint.
- Dual-Channel Alerts: Local Windows Toast notifications + remote phone push notifications via
ntfy.sh. - Admin-Safe Startup: Start with Windows automatically with high privileges using Task Scheduler (no UAC prompts).
- Modern Fluent GUI: Rounded inputs and buttons matching Windows 11 style.
⚠️ IMPORTANT FOR AMD RYZEN USERS:
If your CPU temperature shows as 0°C or None, this is due to Windows Core Isolation blocking the default sensor drivers.
To fix this:
- Open Settings in the tray menu.
- Click Download PawnIO Driver to download and install the signed PawnIO driver.
- Restart ThermalWatch as Administrator.
Always run the application as Administrator so it can access hardware sensors.
