New in 1.2.0

  • Drag and drop files or folders straight onto the window.
  • CHD Manager can check for and install its own updates (SHA-256 verified, test-run before it swaps itself in). The prompt offers Update now, Remind me next time, or Skip this version, and a small badge stays in the header.
  • New About tab: version, links, license info, update controls, and a Copy diagnostics button for bug reports.
  • The window opens wide enough that the toolbar is never squeezed, and the table, options and log scale together when you resize.
  • Tip added for emulators that only accept zlib-compressed CHDs.

Download CHD-Manager-1.2.0-win64.zip, unzip it anywhere, and run CHD Manager.exe. Windows 10/11, 64-bit. Python is not needed. Includes chdman 0.289.

If you are on 1.1.0: it can't update itself, so download this zip by hand once. From 1.2.0 on, updates are offered inside the app.

Heads up: the exe is not code-signed, so Windows SmartScreen may show "unknown publisher" (choose More info, Run anyway), and some antivirus programs can be suspicious of packaged Python programs. You can also run CHD_Manager.pyw from source or build the exe yourself with build.ps1 (see the README).

SHA-256 of the zip: 524FF2903B190C6F9F8FA19A53EFECFA01A44A5931C1511F0A6705FED3193A16
