If I set up aquasuite software sensors to use Open Hardware Monitor temps, everything works okay until I reboot. Once I do, each software sensor's data source (the setting under the check box that says "Use sensor with aqua computer service") is gone and the check box is unchecked. I can close and open both aquasuite and OHM in any order without rebooting and have no problems. Note other settings (e.g. the name of the software sensor) are not lost.
I'm running the latest version of OHM downloaded directly from their website. I've seen mention of other versions of OHM that used to be needed to run with AS, but I was under the impression that those are no longer needed. I guess this seems more like an AS only problem anyway.
I've tried clicking the little floppy disk in the aquero 5 bar in the left-hand navigation pane, but that hasn't helped. I've searched and searched about this, but found only
This post - it says something about a similar problem and saving the settings, but it wasn't clear to me exactly what the poster did to fix it.
I've also tried rebooting and making sure that OHM was running first before I opened aquasuite - that didn't help.
Thanks for any help in advance!
UPDATE:
So I've got a workaround for this that I thought I'd share in case anyone else runs into this problem. Having the Aqua Computer Service start late fixes the issue I was seeing. For details on the problem, read the rest of this forum. I did as follows:
1. Let Aquasuite and Open Hardware Monitor start at system start-up as normal.
2. Go to Window's services and set the "Aqua Computer Service" start-up type to manual.
3. In task scheduler, create a new task.
4. Set it to run with highest privileges.
5. As a trigger, have it run at system start-up and set it to delay for some small amount of time. Right now I've delayed it for one minute but I'm sure that could be trimmed back.
6. As the task's action, have it run the command "net start Aqua Computer Service". The "net" part can go in the program name text box and the "start Aqua Computer Service" can go in the program arguments text box.
And that's it! Once the service is up, Aquasuite will be reading any previously set-up software sensors.
