Sorry for not being perfectly clear here - please don't change the permissions in Windows File Explorer. Open the Propeties of the Managed Profit Miner in Awesome Miner (right click on the Managed Profit Miner and select Properties). Go to the Environment section and check "Run mining process with Administrator privileges"

Finally !!! Yes, it does work that way, the GMiner starts normally. I wonder why, what's the difference, weird

one small thing: if i use GUI function: "Add to Quick Access Toolbar" after closing of Awesome Miner all settings is gone and GUI must be configured from scratch. Please check...
This feature was actually never intended to be available. It's part of the user interface toolkit we use and we have not really integrated with it. For this reason there are currently no Load/Save concept for these buttons. It's on the todo-list for the future. Thanks for the feedback!

YEAH!!! Now works fan management for RTX2080TI multi GPU rigs on Linux hosts properly!
Respect! @patrike
Thanks for the nice feedback and I'm glad to hear that it's working better.

Thanks for sharing. One final request on this. Did you try to run the mining process as Administrator? Right click on the miner and select Properties. Go to the Environment section and check "Run mining process with Administrator privileges". Please let me know and then I will try to reach out to the Gminer developer about what their "Anti-hacking" system is doing here.
if you mean that I do that from Windows File Explorer - set the properties of the miner.exe file, then with admin privileges it dosn't start from Awesome Miner at all (both in diagnostics mode and mining mode):

Patrike, I'm thinking to buy the Premium version of Awesome Miner, there is just one thing I do not understand and cannot find answer to: does the remote agent only execute commands from the main application, or it performs all operations on its own? In other words, do I have to run the main application on a separate computer to control the mining rigs? If so, what happens if the main computer loses connection or freezes? does the profit switching stop until the control is restored?
yup. profit switching won't work but mining will continue.

Awesome Miner version 7.3.2

 Awesome Miner Antminer firmware
  - Exclude the accepted and rejected shares from the DevFee pools in the total number of shares in the miner list

how to set this function
With version 7.3.2 it automatically adjusted. The number of Accepted and Rejected shares you see in the list of miners will only include your pools, not the DevFee pools.

Hi all,

What is the formula for Difficulty, Block Reward and Exponential factor?

Thanks

CoinsPerDay = Hashrate * secondsPerDay * BlockReward / (Difficulty * 2^ExpFactor)

GMiner has a "feature" where it tries to detect tampering. When you launch Gminer from other applications it can on some systems trigger this tamper protection.
It's unfortunately nothing I can do from an Awesome Miner to resolve this as it's a Gminer behavior. What you could try is to run a little older version of Gminer to see if that works better. You can configure this via the Options dialog, Managed Software section.
Older versions of GMiner don't work either, it's not the GMiner that changes version-to-version, it's Awesome Miner. I already posted this issue here before, and the very next release of Awesome Miner fixed the issue, so I assumed that I was heard and the issue was dealt with, and everything worked fine for several updates more, but now GMiner doesn't work again, any version of it. I asked the developer of GMiner too, and was answered that it's not their fault and they cannot deal with every miner management program that launches their miner.
Please start Gminer with the Diagnostics button in Awesome Miner and share the output with me.

If it's the "anti-hacking" error message from Gminer I will contact them and see what it's about. It looks like it appears at random, although it works fine for almost all other users. There is nothing I can do from an Awesome Miner point of view here as it's Gminer behavior.

If you have any replies or discussions with the Gminer developer already, please forward it to me via PM. Thanks!
I accidently fixed the problem. I saw that new version of Awesome Miner came out, so I decided to see if it would work with GMiner, so I tried to update, but it wouldn't update, so I uninstalled Awesome Miner and tried to install it again, but it wouldn't install, so I reinstalled Windows 10 and chose the LTSC version that came out recently, and after installing Awesome Miner everything works now, the GMiner launches fine now. So, with Windows 10 LTSC it works, and I had Windows 10 Corporate before, it didn't work

OOPS.. Correction : It worked until I restarted the computer. And then GMiner started exiting with an error again...I tried RIGHT-CLICK -> system tools -> cleanup all downloaded software, but the fresh copy of GMiner still exits with an error

Hi, MWC profitability in the dashboard is not correct. Awesome miner also does not detect the coin although I have selected Cuckarood29 algorithm for this coin. It does not show its icon. Please kindly fix it.

Thanks for the report. I've already pushed a calculation update to correct MWC. Coin icons are not automatically downloaded but I can make sure it's included in the next update.

Hello again, thanks for the support.

Grin (Cuckaroom29) and MWC (Cuckarood29) arr still showing wrong profitability amounts. Why this error has happened? Awesome miner profitability was so accurate before!

https://imgur.com/wagg8Iv
https://imgur.com/uFAv1mI
When I'm looking right now I can see the following:
1) MWC 29 via WhatToMine: Looks good
2) Grin 29 via WhatToMine: Looks good
3) MWC 29 via CoinCalculators: Looks good
4) Grin 29 via CoinCalculators: Doesn't match WhatToMine and doesn't match Awesome Miner, but it's not as incorrect as in your screenshot

#4 was fine when I made adjustments last week after your previous feedback, but I will take another look.

Are you using CoinCalculators as your primary coin source in the Options dialog, Statistics Provider section? Trying WhatToMine could be an option.
Was these incorrect display only temporary or do you still see them?

There can be cases where Awesome Miner needs adjustments for coins, for example in case of new coins, coin forks and so on. Otherwise the values you see will depend on the sources like CoinCalculators or WhatToMine

Hello again,
I have several mining rigs and in all of them only Whattomine is selected. For Grin and MWC, all of my mining rigs show high values at all times. I took those screenshots a few hours ago, and still showing the same numbers even comparing to the last week.
Can you please go to the Coins tab in Awesome Miner. Does these numbers look fine, given the hashrate configured?

On the Coins tab you can also verify that you don't have any manual property changes to these coins. If the coin name is blue, it indicates that you have modified the coin in some way.

You can also right click on a coin and select "Open calculator on WhatToMine/CoinCalculators". Awesome Miner will then launch a web browser with their web site and you can see if the Revenue in Awesome Miner matches what they report.

I entered the correct hash rate in the profile and settings, and there is not modified or blue coin in the coin tab.

In the coin tab, in front of the MWC, it shows Cuckaroom29 although, in the pool selection, I selected Cuckarood29 for this coin! Also, if I click on MWC in the coin tab to open the Whattomine website, it opens a page that shows MWC is on Cuckatoo31 not Cuckarood29.
So, for this coin, there are two errors in Awesomeminer.
Both algorithms should be changed to Cuckarood29:
https://whattomine.com/coins/322-mwc-cuckarood29

For Grin, in the coin tab, it shows Cuckaroom29, which is correct, but if I click on the Whattomine option, it opens the Grin-CT31 (GRIN) coin with Cuckatoo31 algorithm not Cuckaroom29!
It also should be changed to Cuckaroom29:
https://whattomine.com/coins/293-grin-cuckaroom29

Thanks for the update.

Go to the Options dialog, Statistics Provider section:

1) For "Override coin algorithms", click Configure and make sure you don't have any custom algorithm mappings added.

2) Please uncheck "Keep coins even when no longer listed by provider" and save the changes. Go to the Coins tab again and click the "Update now" button. Are the coins showing up with the correct algorithms now?

Fixed! You're a legend. Thanks
