2.0.0
This release is a complete rewrite. The original tray-only utility has been replaced with a full Fluent Design WPF application.
New Features
- Dashboard — live HDR status, screen brightness, SDR level, and luminance in nits with a curve preview
- SDR Curve editor — interactive graph with draggable control points and an editable brightness-to-SDR table; changes are auto-saved
- Settings page — theme (Light / Dark / System), autostart, minimize to tray, start minimized, HDR poll interval
- System tray — left-click restores the window; right-click for Open / Exit
- Installer — Start Menu shortcut, optional desktop shortcut, Visual C++ 2022 runtime bundled (installed only when missing), full uninstall via Windows Apps & Features
Improvements
- SDR level is applied immediately on HDR activation, app launch (when HDR is already on), and when re-enabling the app via the toggle — brightness is always read fresh before applying
- Uninstaller detects a running instance and offers to close it automatically; the entire install folder is removed on uninstall
- Crash logging to
%LOCALAPPDATA%\Go2HDR\crash.logwith a startup error dialog for easier diagnosis - Published as a multi-file self-contained package — eliminates silent launch failures caused by antivirus blocking single-file bundle extraction
