The overlay is closed automatically when you click elsewhere or switch to other applications or programs. While that is handy already, it is only visible on the screen temporarily. Select performance and you see the device's CPU, GPU and RAM usage in realtime on the screen. Use the keyboard shortcut Windows-G to display its overlay.

Windows 10 and 11 systems come with the Xbox Game Bar application installed. Then just try to decrease it as long as it still works.Windows includes a native option to display certain usage metrics, but most users have not heard of the option probable. Maybe on a slower system you may have to increase the WScript.Sleep milliseconds in the wsf file or the Delay task for time. That did the trick at least on my system. You may change the remaining tabs to your liking. In the Actions tab, create a new "Start a program" action and set cscript and the path to your. In the Triggers tab, create a new " At log on" trigger and make sure to set Delay task for: 1 second! (1 second is not in the drop down menu, but you can just manually type it in.) When creating the new task, in the General tab, make sure to tick Run with highest privileges! Now, you want this to be executed at every logon, which can again be done with the Windows Task Scheduler (similiar to the above linked batchfile method): If you want to test it, you have to run it as administrator! You may open a Command Prompt as administrator and run cscript C:\Users\Linus\AppData\f This is a VBScript that opens the task manager and subsequently emulates the button presses of Alt + Space + n, which minimises a window.

Set WshShell = WScript.CreateObject("WScript.Shell") If this is annoying you, here is another method:Ĭreate a. It will only disappear from the task bar - with the tray icon remaining - if you maximise it once again and minimised it manually. However, with this method you will always have a minimised Task Manager sitting in your Windows task bar after logon, in spite of you having ticked Options->Hide when minimised in Task Manager. Into a batch file and then create a task with the Task Scheduler running this batch file at logon. I found the possibility of putting start /min taskmgr I tried the above for Windows 10, but it just did not work (Task Manager started but not minimised). I know it says MinWidth, but it actually sets the max width. To get even more information into your taskbar, you can increase the max tab width with this registry hack: Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00 You should check out powerline for a more powerful statusline printer. That runs top, gets rid of the first two lines, and prints the other lines to the title! From here, you can do pretty much whatever you want. Output = check_output('top -b -n1 -1'.split()).decode()

(procps-ng is needed for top.) Then open a Cygwin terminal and run this python script in it: #!/usr/bin/env python3
#Window system monitor install#
Install Cygwin with the python3 and procps-ng packages. Because we need those labels that's where the status information is going to go. This will only work if you do not have Settings > Taskbar > "Combine taskbar buttons" set to "Always, hide labels". From there, you can put whatever information you want into the taskbar. Here's a wild hack for you: you start the Cygwin terminal and run a script in it that will set the correct terminal title.
