Translate 0.1.0

Translate shows the translation of every WeChat Input Method candidate while you type pinyin, and inserts the one
you pick with Alt+1…9 or a click.

First public release.

Download

Translate-0.1.0-win-x64.zip — portable, for Windows 10/11 x64. Unzip anywhere and run Translate.exe; no
installer, admin rights or Python needed. Check it against SHA256SUMS.txt.

Translate isn't code-signed yet: if SmartScreen warns, choose More info › Run anyway.

Getting started

Type pinyin with WeChat Input Method in any app and the panel appears under the candidates. Run Translate.exe
again (or press Ctrl+Alt+O) to open Settings, choose a translation service, paste your API key and press
Test connection. Without a service, single words are still translated into English by the built-in dictionary.

Translate starts with Windows from the folder you ran it in; turn that off in Settings › General.

Before you install

• Tested with WeChat Input Method 3.0.0.34 on Windows 11. Other WeType versions may not work; please report yours.
• Translate attaches to WeType's process (with Frida) to read the candidates, which some security software flags.
• Not affiliated with Tencent or WeChat.
