Just set-up a Windows Task to check if the process is running and if not start it up.

That can not be solved since none of these tools write a time stamp into the shared memory so we can not tell if the data is old or up to date.

I also have the Software sensors up and running. Personally, I cannot see any danger in the default behaviour if there is a fault, because I do not see ANY useful function for these data points other than Data Monitoring. The CPU temps for example change from one instant to the next based on workload, and Motherboard temps may be useful for controlling a Chassie fan, but I personally use a temperature sensor on the AQ5 to control an exhauset fan based on case ambient temps. All radiator fans and the pumps should be based on Radiator inlet or outlet temps for control functions.
On the other hand, if a guy might want some action from his LED,s, he mught set up a controller useing a CPU software temp sensor to turn it on and off. However, if the software sensor defaults to 50C, the only thing that happens is the LED stops changing.
