Version 1.3.6 is now available. Most significant changes:

Fix CPU priority settings when using a batch file.
Added vertminer to known miner names
New 'Startup Batch file' option added for setting CGWatcher to start with Windows. This is recommended for Windows 8/8.1 where the other settings have known issues.
Monitor setting to set maximum hashrate threshold
New start mining failure option to restart computer if failed starts exceed threshold.
New start mining failure option to send email to default email address.
Remove scrypt settings when miner is sgminer.
Default gpu-thread value of 2 can now be disabled in Settings -> Miner tab.
Xintensity,rawintensity, and cl-filename settings support added (no longer under Misc. Options)
New troubleshoot mode setting will help start miner in such a way that it is easier to see errors and debug info.
Force close other programs on computer restart setting in Settings -> CGWatcher
Fixed Windows startup entries not being removed when changed to a different method.
Startup entries now given identifiers in filename so in cases of multiple instances, one doesn't overwrite the other.
Experimental increase/decrease text size is now a setting in Settings -> Display and persists through restarts.
Coin 'never remove' flag and 'adjustment' field can now be imported from CGRemote during coin updates.
Additional fields available for edit in Coin Manager.
Additional support for VertMiner
Email settings tab added, setting for default email address for use in notifications where email is not specified.

MinerP: Did you copy and paste your config file text here? If so, you have "gpu-thread" instead of "gpu-threads". This means the setting is being ignored, and CGWatcher is using the default of 2 (which was consistent with CGMiner's documentation). In the new version of CGWatcher, you can disable it using 2 as the default value to achieve results similar to running CGMiner alone. I had made the decision to have CGWatcher set 2 as the default because that is what CGMiner's documentation said, even though in reality it used 1. Now it has been this way for so long that if I changed it, it might affect a lot of users... so I made it a setting in Settings->Miner tab.

milbor2: Translations are on the to-do list, for CGWatcher and CGRemote both. Our plan is to do it in such a way that language packs will be external to the program so they can be added as new languages come out without requiring a software update.

isriam: Did you get this working? If you switch it to:

Code:

"scan" : "opencl:auto"

it should work correctly.

coins_coins_: The coin data comes from whichever provider you choose - CoinChoose or CoinWarz. If the coin is listed on the selected data provider, it will be added in CGWatcher automatically. If a coin you want to use is not listed on your selected data provider, you'll need to contact them to try to get it added.

gtraah: To use a batch file, just select it instead of the miner's executable in the Profile Manager window. You do not need to use a config file if you prefer to use arguments. Once you select a batch file in Profile Manager, its arguments will be loaded automatically. Any changes to the arguments in Profile Manager will be saved back into the batch file.

ozzy1926: CGWatcher always uses a file called temp.conf because some users share config files between miners, then use variables to customize them. To ensure that one miner does not affect another miner, a temporary config file is created on each miner. The temporary config file is essentially just a copy of whatever config file you've set CGWatcher to use.
