You can have a ton of apps that retrieve the FPS if none of them provides the ability to share that data with other apps. In the context of Rainmeter skins, the latter part is provided by tools like HWiNFO or the MSI Afterburner plugin. So, you'll need either HWiNFO or the MSI AB + RTSS installed and running to get such data in your skins. Or, if the FPS tracking app allows logging and such, you could try to read from that log file in the skin, but that would be a highly inefficient way to appraoch it. In any case, you'd need a 3rd party app, unfortunately.I was curious if anyone knew how to pull data/track FPS from Windows Task Manager/Game Bar.
These programs are generally always running in the background regardless, and using RTSS to get the data from seemed redundant if there's already a way to access this information via those sources. I know that Nvidia's GeForce experience has this data also, as you can track FPS in the Nvidia overlay if it's enabled, yet I can't figure out how to pull data from that source either.
Having multiple programs that can track FPS already built in makes it seem odd to get RTSS specifically just to also track FPS in Rainmeter.
