I have a strange bug with your program since I started using it ( ver 1.95 ) its now at 1.99 and its still there
Basically ZEN currency is bugged : it always switches to it, even when its not remotely most profitable one.
So I have to always disable this currency or your program will not work properly. For example right now if I don't disable it I would earn 1.30 EUR but I disable it I earn 1.50 EUR with EXP

I hope you will fix this bug, because sometimes zen IS most profitable and I can't benefit from it, because I have it disabled always. I am using geforce 1060 3 gb if that matters


I've observed something similar with a GTX 1080. I turned off a bunch of not even remotely profitable coins and left only Equihash-based ones because those seem like the only ones that make any sense for my card at the moment, but even then WinMiner seems to prefer ZEN over the very similar ZCL (they use the same miner) even when the difference is something like $0.75/day in ZCL's favor (right now mining ZEN says $3.10/day while ZCL is closer to $3.70/day). It does switch occasionally but most of the time it sticks with ZEN if I leave it alone. I've experimented with turning ZEN off but it keeps switching places with ZCL in revenue, so I don't really want to turn off either one.

How much should we trust the $/day meter anyway? I wouldn't mind a setting to let me show revenue on a shorter timescale and/or a "actual revenue in the last 24 hours" meter instead, but I guess in the latter case that's what the web dashboard is for.
