[Fixed] HWiNFO Can't save sensor settings

Hello dear users of the PortableApps

Okay, after starting, HWiNFO either does not save individual sensor settings at all, or saves them in the registry(HKCU\Software\HWiNFO32 or HKCU\Software\HWiNFO64)
I don't know how to fix that as I don't have the source of the project also official HWiNFO(not PortableApps format) saves directly to registry so I can't tell that the official one is portable

Any help will be appreciated

My OS Windows 10 Pro (17134.81) 64-BIT

Confirmed, Base App Issue

That's a base app issue with the publisher. Both their non-PAF and PAF packages are supposed to store nothing in the registry. I've let Martin know.

I've confirmed it happening with the PAF package. When you change the INI to remember settings, it's storing in the registry.

Sometimes, the impossible can become possible, if you're awesome!

Fixed in 7.10.4540

This is fixed in HWiNFO Portable 7.10.4540. I wrote some custom code to handle sensors on a per-PC basis and the publisher is now using them. Note that the zipped will still leave them in each PC's registry.

Can't save sensor tray and alert settings on Version 8.00.5400

I can't save sensor tray and alert settings on Version 8.00.5400.
Tried to add CPU-temperature sensor to windows tray. It works, but just as long as HWiNFO was closed.
Upon new starting of HWiNFO, no thing shows on windows tray and alert settings are wiped out.
