NetSpeedTray v2.0.1
A polish release on top of the big 2.0.0. Mostly small, user-reported fixes that make the widget calmer and the
app friendlier in more languages, plus a much smaller download. Thanks to everyone who filed issues and sent
Support Bundles - almost all of this came straight from your reports.
A cleaner, steadier widget
The side-by-side hardware readout (CPU/GPU beside your speeds) got a proper pass:
- Nothing jumps anymore. The whole readout used to slide sideways by a digit whenever a percentage ticked
over (9 to 10, 99 to 100). Every field now sits in a fixed-width column, so only the digits change - the
block stays put. - RAM and VRAM line up. They used to drift out of alignment between the CPU and GPU rows when one had a
temperature sensor and the other did not. Now the columns match. - No more clipped memory. After a language change plus restart, the memory reading could clip ("11.6/15.7G"
showing as just "1") until you toggled hardware off and on. Fixed. - More compact. The network readout sits closer to the hardware, with less empty space toward the tray.
- "Show RAM" / "Show VRAM" now grey out until their CPU / GPU monitor is on (they render on those lines, so
alone they showed nothing).
The history graph speaks your language
- Localized numbers and units. The graph now uses your locale's decimal separator and speed unit (for
example "12,3 Mbit/s" in German), matching the widget and the Monitor instead of always showing "12.3 Mbps". - No more tofu. Japanese and Korean axis labels rendered as empty boxes; the graph now uses an installed
Windows CJK font for those locales. Nothing is bundled, so the download size is unchanged.
Smaller download
The installer and portable ZIP were nearly twice the size they needed to be (the one-folder build was packing
the app twice). Fixed - the standalone download is roughly half the size now.
Also fixed
- The up arrow on the plan-speed and data-cap spinboxes now responds to clicks (it was being covered by the
text field on the Windows 11 control style). - The Monitor's display-settings gear now appears only on the Hardware tab, the only place it does anything.
- Data sizes no longer round up into the wrong unit (999,999 bytes reads "1.0 MB", not "1000.0 KB").
- Preferred Monitor now works across multiple monitors. Two bugs kept the widget pinned to the primary
display. NetSpeedTray was silently discarding every secondary-monitor taskbar (it required a system-tray area
that only the primary taskbar has on Windows 11), and even once the widget was placed on the monitor you
picked, a background refresh dragged it back to the primary within a frame. Both are fixed: the widget now
lands on the monitor you choose and stays there. - Clearer guidance for CPU/GPU temperatures and power. LibreHardwareMonitor removed the interface
NetSpeedTray reads (its WMI provider) in v0.9.5, so temperatures and power now need LHM v0.9.4, the last
version that exposes it. NetSpeedTray's in-app "Get LibreHardwareMonitor" link points there, and the old,
misleading "run as Administrator" message shown when the interface is missing is fixed.
Thanks
- @VenusGirl for the Korean localization polish.
- @Mythos, @CMTriX, and everyone who sent Support Bundles for the multi-monitor and hardware-readout reports.
