HardDiskTemp
Installation requirements: Windows 10/11 64-bit, administrator rights for installation and access to the smartctl included in the package. A separate .NET SDK is not required for normal installation/use of the installer; SDK is needed only for build/compile from source or builder. After installation, the application works from the tray and displays temperature only when the disk provides a reliable reading.
Windows Applications / Windows components: HardDiskTemp does not require Microsoft Store installation or a separate Windows App SDK for normal use. It uses the components installed with the package and the embedded smartctl; additional Windows components are installed only if the system clearly requires them.
No extra runtime, SDK, WPT, compiler, or internet download is required. Note: If the setup does not start on a damaged Windows installation, repair Windows/.NET Framework using Microsoft tools and run the setup again.
- Download the latest HardDiskTemp installer.
- Right-click → Run as administrator.
- Starts with Windows and appears in the notification area.
- Verify the SHA256 when needed.
- If the temperature icon does not appear in the tray, restart your computer and select HardDiskTemp in Windows Settings → Personalization → Taskbar → Other taskbar icons.
