About
PingMeter shows your live ping (ms) embedded directly in the Windows 11 taskbar, next
to the tray clock — on the primary taskbar, secondary-monitor taskbars, or all of them.
It replaces keeping "ping google.com -t" open in a terminal: color-coded latency with
configurable thresholds, a sparkline of recent pings, packet-loss percentage, hover
stats (min/avg/max/loss and current DNS servers), quick switching between the hosts you
save, and a daily log of outages, latency spikes and hourly summaries.
It also includes optional network tools you start yourself from the settings window:
a DNS cache flush, a full connection repair (the standard flush / release / renew /
winsock / TCP-IP sequence), and switching the active adapter's IPv4 DNS between
automatic, well-known public resolvers, or addresses you type and save. Encrypted DNS
(DNS over HTTPS) can be turned on per server, with the automatic or a manual template,
matching the choices Windows 11 offers. These actions use built-in Windows networking
features and require your approval at a Windows permission prompt; the app itself runs
without administrator rights, collects no personal data, and survives Explorer
restarts.

Security
No known CVEs for PingMeter.
Coverage is best-effort and depends on a winget package mapping to an NVD CPE entry. Absence here is not a guarantee of safety.
