[Disk Meter] Loading the Disk Meter skin will cause the newest version of Rainmeter (V4.5.1) to crash

As per title.

Rainmeter log file shows nothing useful.

The Rainmeter developers are looking into it. There seems to be some odd interaction with this particular skin and the new changes to the SysInfo measure. If you need a quick fix and don't want to revert to the previous version of Rainmeter, you can replace the [MeasureUserName] measure in the DisksMeter.ini file with the following:

[MeasureUserName]
Measure=String
String=%USER_NAME%
IfCondition=1
IfTrueAction=[!CommandMeasure MeasureGetLocalGroup "Run"]

Look for a new version of Rainmeter to correct this issue; the problem is not really this skin.

Thanks as always for staying on top of things SA. I'm going to do some ModernGadgets dev once I get a Windows VM set up on my machine and figure out how to sync certain directories between the VM and my actual disk (so I can do the editing in my preferred editor, which is unix-only).

You're welcome! You mean Notepad++ doesn't run in Unix? 😱 /jk!

Lol, my editor is kakoune, but I digress. :P

I'll also have to add Rainmeter syntax highlighting so I don't go insane...

Rainmeter 4.5.2 is out and fixes this issue.

[Tweekme]

Excellent! This fixes the issue. Thank you for the speedy fix!

Let's do this.

Closing issue after upstream fix.
