Self-contained Windows x64 build — no .NET installation needed. The zip contains
KB525CControl.exe (tray app), kb525c.exe (command-line client), install.ps1 and
uninstall.ps1.

Install

  1. Unzip anywhere, open PowerShell in that folder.
  2. powershell -ExecutionPolicy Bypass -File .\install.ps1
    — copies the executables to %LOCALAPPDATA%\KB525CControl, adds that folder to
    your user PATH, registers autostart, disables the DPMService service (UAC
    prompt) and starts the app. Switches: -NoAutostart, -KeepDellService.
  3. Look for the tray icon; right/left click → Settings….

DPMService (Dell Peripheral Manager) holds the keyboard's command channel
exclusively, so the app cannot work while it runs. You lose only the factory Zoom
integration of the four buttons and DPM firmware updates; ordinary keys are unaffected.
Undo: .\uninstall.ps1 -RestoreDellService.

Upgrade

Run install.ps1 from the new zip; it stops the running instance and replaces the files.
Your config.json is kept.
