You know, it is possible the timer thing started working too. I don't remember hitting the button two minutes ago and yet it updated. Life is good!

Great program. Can't imagine life without it. Hope Microsoft pays you big time when they buy you out to integrate it into Windows 8.2 or whatever.

Seems perfect! I can't tell exactly if it refreshes or not since the last updated time is still 5 minutes before the hour from Yahoo, but I love the new screen. And I will try hotkey refreshing again in 10-15 minutes so we'll know for sure. You are amazingly fast.

That would be perfect. I bet I could even make a scheduled task in Windows 8 to type the hotkey every 15 minutes or something.

Thanks!!

Global meaning from any application at any time? Like Shift-Win-W? That would be ideal! Thanks!

PS trying to do a ControlSend doesn't seem to work for some reason :(
I can't figure out how to send keys to sweather while it's minimized in the tray

In the meantime as a workaround for Win8, is there a command line argument I can pass to sweather to make it refresh? I am thinking of binding a key in an AutoHotKey script to refresh it whenever I press a button. Thanks!

Can confirm dshoup's issue of no auto-refresh on Windows 8 64-bit, have the exact same issue.
Also tried running it as administrator and a 15-minute refresh, still no auto-refresh.

Manually refreshing it works. Just not automatically.
