Fixes

  • Allows elevated administrator files like .exe installers on the phone to be executed directly by the PC (#1)

Highlights

  • Run installers from your phone. Double-click a setup file on the phone's drive and it runs, administrator prompt and all.
  • Automatic updates for Windows. WinDroidFS now checks GitHub for new versions and installs them for you (you can turn this off in Options).
  • Steadier connections. Wi-Fi and USB tethering no longer drop during big copies, and switching between Direct USB and USB tethering no longer needs a replug.
  • Your phone's drive is yours. Only the Windows account that connected the phone can open it.

Also new

  • The phone app tells you when your PC needs a newer version of it, and where to get it
  • The phone app stays ready while the cable is plugged in, so the PC connects without opening the app
  • A Reconnect option in the tray menu
  • Sharper, modern-looking dialogs, and the WinDroidFS icon throughout setup

Updating

  • Windows: download and run WinDroidFS-Setup-1.1.0.exe. This is the last time you'll need to do this by hand: from 1.1.0 on, WinDroidFS updates itself.
  • Android: Install WinDroidFS-1.1.0.apk. Please update both: the PC app will let you know if the phone app is behind.

Known issues

  • Over a weak Wi-Fi signal, running an installer from the phone's drive can be slow and use a lot of CPU. Direct USB remains unaffected by this issue.

Miscellaneous additions

  • Issue templates have been added.
