I’d like to share a detailed solution for anyone struggling with the Sensor Panel moving, resizing, or resetting when using a secondary display with different scaling or resolution. This is a common pain point discussed by users like scotts, supes, WeakLaugh, and Atila on the official AIDA64 forums, where many report that the panel resizes itself or jumps between monitors after rebooting or reconnecting displays. (https://forums.aida64.com/topic/7580-sensor-panel-resized-itself-after-connecting-new-monitor-now-i-cant-fix-it/) Goal Lock your Sensor Panel on a secondary monitor with fixed size/position and make it launch reliably with Windows — even if monitors disconnect/reconnect or have different DPI scaling. 1) Edit the AIDA64 configuration file (AIDA64.ini) Close AIDA64 entirely. Open Notepad as Administrator. Locate your AIDA64.ini file: %localappdata%\FinalWire\AIDA64\AIDA64.ini or in your installation folder. Find the [SensorPanel] section or add it at the end if it doesn’t exist. Replace or set the following values according to your monitor setup: [SensorPanel] Active=1 FixedSize=1 Width=1280 Height=400 PositionX=-1600 PositionY=1040 LoadLayout=1 LayoutFile=C:\AIDA64\SensorPanel_Fixed.spzip [Display] AutoAdjustDPI=0 AutoAdjustResolution=0 What to change for your setup: Width / Height → set these to the exact resolution of your Sensor Panel window. This locks the panel size. PositionX / PositionY → coordinates of the panel on your screen: PositionX = horizontal offset relative to the primary monitor; multiply by the primary monitor’s DPI scaling if it differs from 100%. PositionY = vertical offset from the top of the virtual desktop; usually PrimaryMonitorHeight - SecondaryPanelHeight if the panel sits at the bottom. LayoutFile → point to the .spzip or .a64sp layout you saved. Use the full path, without quotes. [Display] section prevents AIDA64 from automatically adjusting DPI or resolution when monitors reconnect. 2) Create an automatic startup script (.bat) This ensures AIDA64 opens after Windows has initialized monitors, preventing resizing or jumping. Open Notepad. Paste: @echo off REM Close AIDA64 if already running taskkill /f /im aida64.exe >nul 2>&1 REM Wait 8 seconds for Windows to arrange displays (adjust if your monitors need more time) timeout /t 8 /nobreak >nul REM Start AIDA64 start "" "C:\Program Files (x86)\AIDA64 Extreme\aida64.exe" What to change for your setup: timeout /t 8 → increase if your secondary display takes longer to initialize. Path to aida64.exe → replace with the actual path where AIDA64 is installed on your PC. Save as AIDA64_Startup.bat (type: All Files, not .txt). Create a shortcut to this .bat and place it in the Startup folder: Win + R → type shell:startup → paste shortcut. Optional: In the shortcut properties → Run: Minimized, so the console window doesn’t appear. What This Fix Solves Locks Sensor Panel size & position on your secondary monitor Prevents Windows DPI scaling from resizing it unexpectedly Ensures AIDA64 launches after monitors are ready Stops AIDA64 from jumping to the primary display on reboot or after connecting virtual monitors Why This Is Needed Many users report that the Sensor Panel keeps resizing or moving after disconnects, restarts, or when DPI scaling differs between monitors — even with “Lock panel size/position” enabled in preferences. (https://forums.aida64.com/topic/7580-sensor-panel-resized-itself-after-connecting-new-monitor-now-i-cant-fix-it/) Credits & References Thanks to users across the AIDA64 community (e.g., scotts, supes, WeakLaugh, Atila) for identifying that the core issue relates to panel resizing on monitor changes and scaling, which inspired this workflow.

After Flip Clock, I am excited to share something experimental: The "Butter" Glide Dynamics approach: Add buttery gauge physics (removes crossfade ghosting) to your custom gauges and they will feel sliding. Please see and share your thoughts if you feel any difference: ❤️ This lovely panel was shared by @BHSY 😍 Screen Recording 2026-03-17 172945.mp4 @Loyd I have now fixed the issue where new sensors/items were added to the bottom of the list and changing there position up was not getting saved.5 points

AIDA64 SensorPanel Watcher – Complete Guide Introduction The AIDA64 SensorPanel can sometimes open in the wrong position or size, especially on multi-monitor setups. This Watcher system ensures the panel always opens in the correct location and size, using a master .ini file as reference. Features: Automatically runs when Windows starts Monitors the AIDA64 .ini file every few seconds Fixes the SensorPanel window position and size Runs silently in the background The system uses: Master .ini file – your reference configuration PowerShell Watcher script – monitors the .ini file and fixes the window Hidden VBS launcher – runs the batch silently with admin rights Optional batch file – copies the master .ini file and restarts AIDA64 Step 1: Prepare the Master .ini File Create a folder to store your reference .ini file. Example: C:\Path\To\Master\aida64.ini Copy your desired AIDA64 .ini file into this folder. This is the file the watcher will use as a reference. Step 2: Create the Batch File Open Notepad and paste: @echo off taskkill /f /im aida64.exe >nul 2>&1 timeout /t 5 /nobreak >nul copy /y "C:\Path\To\Master\aida64.ini" "C:\Program Files\FinalWire\AIDA64 Extreme\aida64.ini" >nul start "" "C:\Program Files\FinalWire\AIDA64 Extreme\aida64.exe" Save as AIDA64_Fixed_SensorPanel.bat. Note: Replace the paths with your master .ini file path and AIDA64 installation folder. Step 3: Create the Hidden VBS Launcher Open Notepad and paste: Set objShell = CreateObject("Shell.Application") If WScript.Arguments.Length = 0 Then objShell.ShellExecute "wscript.exe", """" & WScript.ScriptFullName & """ runas", "", "runas", 1 WScript.Quit End If batPath = "C:\Path\To\Watcher\AIDA64_Fixed_SensorPanel.bat" Set WshShell = CreateObject("WScript.Shell") WshShell.Run """" & batPath & """", 0, False Save as AIDA64_Fixed_SensorPanel_Hidden.vbs. Note: Replace batPath with the path to your batch file. Step 4: Create the PowerShell Watcher Script Open Notepad and paste: $master = "C:\Path\To\Master\aida64.ini" $install = "C:\Program Files\FinalWire\AIDA64 Extreme\aida64.ini" $vbs = "C:\Path\To\Watcher\AIDA64_Fixed_SensorPanel_Hidden.vbs" $SensorPanelClass = "TForm_HWMonitoringSensorPanel" if (-not ("WinAPI" -as [type])) { Add-Type @" using System; using System.Runtime.InteropServices; using System.Text; public class WinAPI { public delegate bool EnumWindowsProc(IntPtr hWnd, IntPtr lParam); [DllImport("user32.dll")] public static extern bool EnumWindows(EnumWindowsProc lpEnumFunc, IntPtr lParam); [DllImport("user32.dll", SetLastError=true)] public static extern int GetClassName(IntPtr hWnd, StringBuilder lpClassName, int nMaxCount); [DllImport("user32.dll")] public static extern bool IsWindowVisible(IntPtr hWnd); [DllImport("user32.dll")] public static extern bool MoveWindow(IntPtr hWnd, int X, int Y, int nWidth, int nHeight, bool bRepaint); } "@ } $global:foundHandles = @() function Get-FileHashMD5($file) { if (Test-Path $file) { return (Get-FileHash $file -Algorithm MD5).Hash } else { return "" } } function Fix-SensorPanel { $global:foundHandles = @() $callback = { param($hWnd, $lParam) if ([WinAPI]::IsWindowVisible($hWnd)) { $classSb = New-Object System.Text.StringBuilder 256 [WinAPI]::GetClassName($hWnd, $classSb, $classSb.Capacity) | Out-Null if ($classSb.ToString() -eq $SensorPanelClass) { $global:foundHandles += $hWnd } } return $true } $delegate = [WinAPI+EnumWindowsProc]$callback [WinAPI]::EnumWindows($delegate, [IntPtr]::Zero) | Out-Null foreach ($hWnd in $global:foundHandles) { for ($i=0; $i -lt 10; $i++) { [WinAPI]::MoveWindow($hWnd, -1280, 1040, 1280, 400, $true) Start-Sleep -Milliseconds 200 } } } while ($true) { if (Get-FileHashMD5($master) -ne Get-FileHashMD5($install)) { Start-Process "wscript.exe" -ArgumentList ('"' + $vbs + '"') -Verb RunAs } Fix-SensorPanel Start-Sleep -Seconds 5 } Save as AIDA64_Watcher.ps1. Note: Update paths to your master .ini file, installation folder, and VBS file. Step 5: Create a Hidden Scheduled Task Open Task Scheduler (Win + S → Task Scheduler) Click Create Task… General Tab: Name: AIDA64 Sensor Panel Watcher Check Run only when user is logged on Check Run with highest privileges Configure for: Windows 10 Triggers Tab: New → Begin task: At log on → OK Actions Tab: New → Action: Start a program Program/script: powershell.exe Add arguments: -WindowStyle Hidden -ExecutionPolicy Bypass -File "C:\Path\To\Watcher\AIDA64_Watcher.ps1" Settings Tab: Allow task to run on demand Run task as soon as possible after a missed start Restart task if it fails (1 min interval, 3 attempts) Click OK → Enter password if requested How it Works The Watcher checks the installed .ini file against the master .ini file If differences are detected, it runs the batch file silently to update AIDA64 The PowerShell script searches for the Sensor Panel window by class name Moves it to the correct monitor and resizes it Runs invisible in the background with very low resource usage Resource Usage: The Watcher uses minimal CPU and memory (typically <5 MB RAM, negligible CPU).

By looking for a solution for anyone still having issues with the SensorPanel moving, changing size, or restarting when using a secondary display with a different scale or resolution on Windows (as me, running latest AIDA64 8.25 version), and coming from this: I would like to introduce y'all: AIDA64 SensorPanel Watcher AIDA64 SensorPanel Watcher is a light script in refinement phase (but actually working) that checks if the AIDA .ini configuration file has changed and automatically readjust the position and size of the SensorPanel if they have changed as well. Note: The full script has been shared, but the Position and Size of the SensorPanel have to be changed according to users' preference.1 point

@Mice007 I’m trying to understand which lines in the AIDA64 ini file actually define the size and position of the Sensor Panel. I’ve noticed that some settings like enabling the context menu are saved, but the width, height, and position don’t seem to be applied from the ini. The reason I ask is that I’ve created a script acting as a ‘watcher’ to always copy a master ini to the installation folder if it detects changes. If I can determine which ini parameters control the size, it would allow me to partially fix the panel misalignment... EDIT: Nevermind, I am programming a basic "Watcher" that checks the size and position of the SensorPanel every 5 seconds, and adjusts it if there have been changes EDIT 2: Watcher launched (working but still in refinement process).

I reworked this to be hopefully more cohesive, e.g. temps are all in yellow Loads and fan speeds all in white, etc. Also each bar in the graphs are individually tied to changes. Those are temp for CPU & GPU (26 states each), %space used (top) and temp (bottom)for drives (the usual 16 states each). I think it makes the graphs visually match better to the numerical value. And finally the bars color change from one bar to the next in an RGB sense running from pure blue to pure red. The screen snip only shows blue moving into green territory. 3H for Taichi.spzip1 point

I have the hardest time trying to decide on a good design based on the 5 panels I did so far. So, I asked my wife which one she preferred. This is the one she picked. Not as busy as some others, but since my prime concern is really overheating something, this one does all I really need. If the logo at the top is unfamiliar this panel goes on a "Taichi Lite" based unit. trial 5.spzip1 point

It's been almost 5 years since I first posted this panel. I refreshed it once to a higher resolution to support 3800 x 1100 displays, in horizontal orientation. This is the second (and probably last) refresh, this time in vertical resolution: 1100 x 3800. I recently built a new box so I decided to mount the display vertically, thus I needed to update the panel. The zip file contains the updated panel along with the font files needed Reminder that in order for FPS to display, RivaTuner is required I noticed that it's more of a trend lately to sell sensor panels. No issue there, if you're selling your own work. What is despicable are those that are taking from this site and others, and claiming our contributions as their own and profiting from it. Like this bottom-feeder: https://www.etsy.com/shop/FaCeRo3LShop I was able to remove one of my panels from his "store" but was not able to shut it down, since I could only make a claim for my own work. Anyway, despite all of that, I'm still posting for free for the community. This is a hobby for me, not a business. Thanks for all the downloads, messages and positive feedback over the years! ------ UPDATE: Added updated vertical and horizontal versions of the panel with new gauges built in support of the Wireview Pro II Aida - Return of Spy - Vertical - Wireview.spzip Aida - Return of Spy - Horizontal - Wireview.spzip1 point
