Hey, is this update released yet?Just to let everyone know that the "Gauges not updating automatically (staying grey) on startup" problem has been solved and the fix will be included on the next update.
I tried first using a process measure to know when HWiNFO was running or not, but it didn't solve the problem since HWiNFO takes around 10 to 20 seconds after launch to report the values to "gadget" so it was more tricky to let know rainmeter when to actually disable the measures automatically or not, so I decided to take that functionality out, now measures won't be disabled automatically anymore.
The only way measures will be disabled is when there's no sensor value entered manually (Sensor's Index Value <= -1). This applies to the main Gauge Sensor and all 6 list's sensors. However, List Sensor Measures will be disabled automatically when the list is closed, and will only enable those that have an Index Value set when the list is open.
With this fix, now the gauges should automatically read the values around 5 seconds (Default UpdateRate) after HWiNFO is fully running on startup, so it could take around 30 seconds in total for the gauges to display the values after startup (This is due to how HWiNFO starts up).
I noticed this problem more frequently after I moved to Windows 11, so it could either be Windows 11 or a recent HWiNFO update that makes it to take more time to run than usual.
I also tackled the "Gauges being grey when State = 0 but the actual gauge value is not 0" problem. Now gauges will only be grey when either there's no sensor active (Gauge Sensor Index Value <= -1) or HWiNFO is not running (No Gauge Sensor Value is being reported to gadget).
I'm also working on making gauges fully colorable (through Themes making), all the functionality is already done on the code side, but I still have to make some sort of UI to actually change the colors. These changes would act as a Theme which would change not only the Gauge's color but the whole UI.
It will be some sort of simple Theme Making skin, similar to the Gauge Creator. Where you can select 1 or 2 colors and it would automatically create a Theme based on those colors.

Gauge gradient colors can still be modified through HSLiders as normal.
