  • Folders can now be added as "Linked folders", which will add the contents of that folder to LauncherX, then automatically reflect any changes made to the contents of that folder in LauncherX. Contents of a "linked" folder are indicated by a small icon at the bottom left. Closes issue #11.

  • Fixed a bug where hidden folders could not be added to LauncherX.

  • Fixed a bug where the "Error adding items" window would cut off file paths that were too long.

Things to note:

  • LauncherX is now based on the WindowsAppSDK framework with WinUI 3. As such, there is no longer any need to install the .NET Framework 4.8 runtime. However as a result, LauncherX is no longer compatible with Windows 7 and Windows 8.1.
  • Furthermore, there are now different installers for different CPU architectures, unlike previous versions of LauncherX. Please download the correct installer for your machine:
    • For x86 64-bit CPUs, please download LauncherX_2.1.1_x64_Setup.exe.
    • For x86 32-bit CPUs, please download LauncherX_2.1.1_x86_Setup.exe.
    • For ARM 64-bit CPUs, please download LauncherX_2.1.1_arm64_Setup.exe.
  • If you encounter problems updating LauncherX, try uninstalling the previous version of LauncherX first. Don't worry, your data will not be deleted.
