Minimizes your Path of Exile Window to save electricity while you're AFK.
Path of Exile uses quite a bit of CPU while you're just standing around idle in your hideout while waiting for someone to buy your items. When you minimize the game's window using the task manager, the CPU usage will go down to nearly 0%.
As it can be quite cumbersome to minimize PoE using the task manager this tool will automize it for you. That way you can't even forget it :)
- Windows 10 64bit -> see Releases for most recent binaries
- Windows 10 32bit -> you'd have to build it yourself
- Windows < 10 maybe? But you should propably upgrade either way..
- Download the Zip file on the releases page and extract it
- run poe-minimizer.exe
- To close or set it run on system startup right click the tray icon
If you're having any issues, feel free to open an issue here on github.
On my machine this tool uses <1MB of RAM and has non measurable CPU usage. So it should not impact your FPS.
Following diagram roughly describes the algorithm:
- Only tested under Windows 10 64bit
cargo clean
cargo build --release
