OpenTurbine Setup Tool v0.5.24

Unsigned Windows Setup Tool release.

Who should install this release?

• Windows users whose board is visible to Windows but has no usable COM port, especially on a fresh PC without CP210x or WCH drivers.

What changed for users?

• The tool now keeps the matching CP210x or WCH driver action available when another, unrelated COM port made the ESP32 bootloader probe fail.
• It still gives BOOT/RESET guidance instead of suggesting a redundant driver when the detected bridge already owns a COM port.
• The EXE and recommended ZIP now enforce the same setup-tool version; download both from this release.

Supported boards

• Classic ESP32 with at least 4 MB flash
• ESP32-S3 DevKitC-1 N16R8 target

Before updating

• Download both OpenTurbineSetupTool.exe and OpenTurbine_Recommended.zip from this release.
• The Clean install / reinstall path erases the selected board. Use Update and keep my setup for normal working-controller updates.

Known limitation

• This EXE is unsigned. Windows SmartScreen or Smart App Control may warn or block it. Continue only after verifying this official OpenTurbine release and, if needed, its SHA-256 checksum.

Technical files and checksums are included below.

OpenTurbine Setup Tool v0.5.23

Unsigned Windows setup tool release.

What changed:

• Hardened Windows USB driver installation.
• Installs vendor INF driver packages with pnputil instead of launching vendor EXE installers.
• Bundles CP210x and WCH CH340/CH341/CH343 INF/CAT/SYS drivers in the recommended package.
• Adds schema-2 package compatibility so the EXE and ZIP must come from the same release family.

Important:

• OpenTurbineSetupTool.exe is not code-signed in this release, so Windows SmartScreen or Smart App Control may warn or block it on some PCs.
• Download both OpenTurbineSetupTool.exe and OpenTurbine_Recommended.zip from this same release.

OpenTurbine Setup Tool v0.5.22

Fixes driver installation on clean Windows PCs.

• Setup tool v0.5.22 can install bundled signed INF driver folders with pnputil, not only vendor EXE installers.
• The recommended package now includes CP210x, CH341/CH340, and CH343 WCH serial driver payloads.
• The package builder now rejects WCH driver inputs that contain neither INF files nor an installer EXE.

Hashes:

• OpenTurbineSetupTool.exe: 19416c6cbb851e71c027647b9802ef8f451f61d97b9d4d6577271d0c16fd0003

Note: the EXE is still unsigned until a code-signing certificate is added to the GitHub Actions secrets.
