Switcher3way for Windows — 0.1.0 (preview)

The first Windows build of Switcher3way: it auto-detects the language of what you type and fixes the keyboard layout across English, Ukrainian, and Russian — the same precision-first, N-way engine as the macOS app, ported to Win32.

Install

  1. Download Switcher3way-0.1.0-win-x64.msi below.
  2. Double-click it and approve the User Account Control prompt (per-machine install).
  3. Because this preview is not yet code-signed, Windows SmartScreen may show "Windows protected your PC / unknown publisher". Click More info → Run anyway. (An OV/EV signing certificate to remove this is on the roadmap.)
  4. Launch Switcher3way from the Start menu. It lives in the system tray (the flag icon shows the current layout).

Requirements: Windows 10/11, 64-bit. No .NET install needed — the runtime is bundled (self-contained, ~55 MB download).

What's included

  • Automatic layout fixing across EN/UK/RU as you type, with a manual trigger (default F9; double-Shift and others selectable in Settings).
  • System-tray flag indicator that follows the live layout.
  • Tabbed Settings, a unified/searchable exceptions manager, per-app layout memory, pause, and an opt-in debug log.
  • UI localized in 16 languages (follows the system language; overridable in Settings → General).
  • Built-in offline Help (User Guide in EN/UK/RU) — Help in the tray menu.

Known limitations (preview)

  • Unsigned → SmartScreen warning on first run (see step 3).
  • x64 only for now (no arm64 build yet).
  • Won't rewrite text inside elevated/administrator windows unless the app itself is run as administrator (Windows security boundary).
  • Windows has no auto-update yet (the in-app updater is macOS-only); check this page for new builds.
