Under Settings and Resource Usage the F&H software is saying my computer has 12 CPUs. My computer has one CPU, 6 cores and 12 threads. The term CPUs should be changed to Threads or CPU Threads.
Cheers.

Well, technically it is available logical cpus.
I think most people don’t know what threads are anyway.

The name "Logical cores" would be another option. It would be more descriptive.
Saying you have 12 CPUs in your CPU is also a bit confusing. It is a bit like saying there are 4 engines in my engine. In this case each cylinder is counted as an engine.
The system monitor in Linux Mint Mate also calls them CPU1, CPU2, ..... Would be nice if they were called LCPU1, LCPU2, ....
Oh well.
