Protect Panes 1.4.2
UniFi Protect live view for Windows, one window per camera, across several consoles.
New
- Aspect ratio for 360° views. Right-click a 360° camera → 360° view → Aspect ratio to choose the window's shape: 16:9 (the default, as before), 4:3, 3:2, 1:1, 21:9, or Any shape to size it freely. Quad, Single view and Panorama fill whatever shape you pick. It's saved per camera and kept in layouts. In a grid window the tile sets the shape, so the option isn't offered there.
Fix
- Fewer security alerts. Each time it started, Protect Panes cleared its Start with Windows entry in the registry, even when there was nothing to clear. Microsoft Defender can flag repeated changes to startup entries as Anomaly detected in ASEP registry. Now the app reads the entry first and changes it only when the setting and Windows disagree: when you turn Start with Windows on or off. Nothing else about the setting changes.
Install or upgrade
- From 1.4.0 or 1.4.1: Settings → Updates → Check for updates, then Install. It's the small update, about 1.3 MB.
- From 1.3.x: the same, but it downloads the full installer or zip.
- From 1.2.0 or 1.3.0 portable: quit the app (tray → Quit) and run
ProtectPanes-Setup.exe, or replace the folder with the zip. Your settings carry over. - New install: run
ProtectPanes-Setup.exe. It isn't code-signed, so Windows shows Windows protected your PC: click More info → Run anyway.
