Install Libre Hardware Monitor LHM

The Stream Deck plugin partially relies on sensor data from LibreHardwareMonitor, for example to display CPU temperature. To enable this functionality, the LibreHardwareMonitor web server must be running, and the KeyName defined in the plugin must appear at least once in the name of the corresponding sensor.

This setting only has to be made once and then works for all other plugin options
With some games or applications, no value can be displayed at the start because they block sensor queries as long as they run.
