Installation & Optional Dependencies

  1. Download and install the latest version of Rainmeter (instructions here), if you have not already done so.
  2. Download the latest .rmskin release from GitHub.
  3. Run through .rmskin file and follow Rainmeter's installation prompts.
  4. Install any optional dependencies desired:
  • WebNowPlaying - required for media player skin
  • Spicetify - required for WebNowPlaying to work with a Spotify desktop client
  • CoreTemp - required for CPU temperature and per-core utilization monitors

Setup & Customization

After installation, a default configuration should be loaded and display the suite. As with any Rainmeter skin, components can be disabled or moved at will.

To set up some skins, navigate to the skin installation location (likely Documents/Rainmeter/Skins/InCH). Navigate to @Resources/Styles. Open GlobalVariables.inc and edit any values that need to be tailored to your system, e.g. drive letters, your network upstream and downstream speeds, and the gain to apply to the visualizer levels. If you have issues with the network skin, WiFiAdapterID and NetInterface may need to also be modified.

The suite can be further customized by editing the style files in @Resources/Styles. Either copy the Default style to a new style and change the style path in GlobalVariables, or edit the Default style directly. Change the variables in StyleSheetVars.inc to modify colors, fonts, date formats, etc. Options are grouped per skin. Change the style definitions in MeterStyles.inc to affect any skin using those styles.
