The first release of PCPanel Revive: a free, open-source replacement for the official PCPanel software on Windows 10/11, for the PCPanel Pro, the PCPanel Mini and the original wooden PCPanel. One small exe in the tray; no Java, no services, no installer.

Getting started: download pcpanel-revive.exe, quit the official PCPanel software, and run it. If you used the official software, one click imports your profiles; if you're new, Quick setup builds a ready-made layout for the apps on your PC.

"Windows protected your PC"? The exe isn't code-signed yet, so SmartScreen may warn you the first time. Click More info > Run anyway.

What it does

  • A live picture of your panel. Move a control and its settings open. Lights, positions, app icons and live volumes are shown as they really are.
  • Volume for anything: apps (with real icons), devices, the app in front, "everything else", OBS sources and Voicemeeter. No volume jumps: after a volume changes elsewhere, the dial takes over smoothly.
  • Knobs beyond volume: scroll, zoom, brush size or timeline steps, one keystroke per step; or dim your Home Assistant or Philips Hue lights.
  • Buttons: press, double press and hold on every knob, with 29 kinds of action: media keys and shortcuts, mute, audio devices, focus mode, open apps and websites, type text, turn displays off, lock the PC, OBS, web requests and more.
  • Shift layer and profile slider: hold a knob to give every control a second job, or turn a slider into a profile switch with a color per profile.
  • Cheat sheet: hold a knob to see a map of your panel with what every control does.
  • Lighting: per-control colors, fills and meters, 12 presets plus your own, mute colors, and a music visualizer that dances to what's playing (only for the apps and lights you choose).
  • Notification lights: pulse a knob when Discord has an unread message, blink on an Outlook notification, or light the logo red while any app is using your microphone.
  • Profiles that switch automatically with the app in front.
  • Safe to tinker: autosave, undo/redo, automatic backups, a panel self-test, and updates from GitHub with one click.

Tested on a PCPanel Pro. The Mini and the original are supported with the same protocol as the official software but haven't been tested on real hardware yet; reports are welcome.
