Sorry for the rapid release alerts here - the auto-start logic managed to slip through the cracks. This is a quick patch to fix that.

The release notes to v1.8.0.1 still apply, so I've included them again here:

Primary Fix

This release implements an overhaul to the "Automatically Start With Windows" logic. This newer implementation relies on PowerShell to ensure that the taskbar is available before attempting to launch the program. This should bring an end to race conditions that could cause the applet to launch in an invisible and broken state. This should solve #30, and may or may not impact #36

IMPORTANT: You will need to uncheck and then recheck "Automatically Start With Windows" to regenerate the task scheduler event

Other Changes

  • "Open Application Folder" has been added to the tray applet menu.
  • You can now launch the applet in debug / verbose output mode by launching app-launcher-debug.vbs from the installation directory.
  • You can use debug mode along with "Restart Audio Engine On > Any Device Connection Changes" to see the name of devices being connected.
    • Using this knowledge, you can add devices to the device_blacklist section in the settings.json file. Blacklisted devices will be ignored when monitoring for the "Any Device Connection Changes" option.
  • Cleaned up and enhanced the "Any Device Connection" monitor.
  • Whenever new options are introduced that your settings do not have, the defaults will be automatically copied over
  • The installer is a lot better at stopping the app and restarting it when installation completes
