High Values in WMI Cpu Load Sensor

Modified on 2025-06-10 22:37:10 +0200

I just realized that some of my CPU Usage values with the WMI CPU Load Sensor are crazy!

The main channel show a minimum usage of -175% and a maximum of 6893%. In theory the accepted values are form 0 to 100%

This is a screenshoot of the problem

Any ideas to fix it?

thanks!

WMI does that sometimes. Please enable the spike filter in the channel settings, set the lower value to 0 and the upper one 100. The spikes will then be eradicated from the graphs. However, the scale of the gauge will stay the same.
