All the WiFiStatus stuff is working for me.

I strongly suspect that they are not enabling "Let desktop apps access your location" in Settings / Privacy & security / Location.

Windows 11 24h2 will NOT allow WiFiStatus to function without that setting.

Note that this will cause Windows to display the "Location" icon in the notification area of the taskbar if WiFiStatus is active, and this icon cannot be removed or hidden.

This is not about the WifiStatus plugin specifically, but anything that accesses the WiFi information:

In Powershell:

Code:

(get-netconnectionProfile).Name(netsh wlan show interfaces) -Match '^\s+Signal' -Replace '^\s+Signal\s+:\s+',''
This requires that Setting, and that icon pops up for 10 seconds or so...

Added that to the manual.
