8GadgetPack VS Bginfo

Are we just completely ignoring this exists? Source: 5 months ago

I downloaded this one a long time ago when I saw a video of someone using it for their Windows 10 machine which I mainly just use it to check my CPU and memory usage as well as monitoring my drive spaces so I don't end up killing it and that I don't have to click on "This PC" to see what there is left and also this is what it looks like.

I installed the 8GadgetPack, it has a lot of gadgets that Win7 doesn't have. https://8gadgetpack.net/. Source: 12 months ago

For me it was a false positive generated because of having 8GadgetPack installed. If you have this installed, either remove it or get the latest version which resolves this issue from 8gadgetpack.net - see release notes at https://8gadgetpack.net/#Versionhistory. Source: over 1 year ago

BGinfo is one very simple approach to your basic premise. Source: about 1 year ago

Check out BGInfo. https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/downloads/bginfo. Source: about 1 year ago

BGinfo runs on boot to overlay useful information on the wallpaper. Source: about 1 year ago

Microsoft has BGinfo @ https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/downloads/bginfo that is free and can be pushed to machines to display relevant data like machine name and IP right on the desktop and its highly visible to end users. Source: over 1 year ago

But, I recommend taking a look at bginfo. A lot of places just use this to constantly display the system's info on the Desktop. It seems like a campy solution, but it's a popular campy solution that no one questions. Source: over 1 year ago
