Rainmeter is a free, open-source platform that enables skins to run on the desktop. Rainmeter allows you to display customizable skins on your desktop, from hardware usage meters to fully functional audio visualizers. You are only limited by your imagination and creativity.
Rainmeter is the best known and most popular desktop customization program for Windows. Enhance your Windows computer at home or work with skins; handy, compact applets that float freely on your desktop. Rainmeter skins provide you with useful information at a glance. It"s easy to keep an eye on your system resources, like memory and battery power, or your online data streams, including email, RSS feeds, and weather forecasts.
Many skins are even functional: they can record your notes and to-do lists, launch your favorite applications, and control your media player - all in a clean, unobtrusive interface that you can rearrange and customize to your liking. Rainmeter is at once an application and a toolkit.
Rainmeter is open source software distributed free of charge under the terms of the GNU GPL v2 license.
Rainmeter 4.5.25 changelog:
Fixed
- Registry Measure: Corrected several long-standing bugs related to how errors are handled, and what is returned to the measure string and number values in the case of errors. The string and number values will now be set to "0" / 0 on failure.
Changed
- Rainmeter Build: Added certificates / digital signatures to all internal .exe/.dll files in the installer. This should reduce or eliminate the virus false positives we have had.

- String Measure: Changed the measure so it will not populate values when initially set to Disabled or Paused.
- About/Version Dialog: Made some cosmetic changes to the Version dialog.
