CHD Manager is now Game Format Converter. This is an old release. The current version is Game Format Converter 2.1.0. The old program can't update itself to it, so please download it once by hand.

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
