What's new

  • Check for updates — from the right-click menu, plus an automatic daily check that notifies you via tray notification when a new version is available (can be turned off in Settings)
  • Network event log — daily log files record ping timeouts, recovery (with outage duration), latency spikes, and hourly min/avg/max/loss summaries; open via "View log" / "Open logs folder" in the menu
  • Optional per-ping CSV log for graphing/analysis (off by default)
  • Log retention setting (default 30 days)

Install

Download PingMeter.exe below, put it somewhere permanent, run it, and enable "Start with Windows" in Settings. Requires the .NET 8 Desktop Runtime.

⚠️ Windows SmartScreen notice

When you first run the downloaded exe, Windows may show "Windows protected your PC". This is expected for any new, unsigned open-source executable — it means the file hasn't built up download reputation with Microsoft yet, not that anything is wrong with it. To run it: click More info → Run anyway.

You can verify your download is the authentic, untampered file:

Check it in PowerShell with Get-FileHash PingMeter.exe — the hash must match exactly. The full source code is in this repository if you'd rather build it yourself.
