SysManager 1.78.7

[1.78.7] - 2026-09-08

Running SysManager as administrator made several tabs feel slower than they needed to. Every single thing
they asked Windows to do started a fresh hidden helper first and waited for it to be ready — DNS &
Hosts does that six times, Edge/OneDrive Remover four. Those tabs now start one helper and use it for the
whole batch, and let it go once you have moved on.

Changed

• Administrator tasks reuse their helper instead of starting a new one every time. The wait to start
  one is the slow part, so a tab doing several things in a row is now noticeably quicker on the second
  action onward. It is let go about twenty seconds after you stop, so nothing is left sitting in memory
  while you use the rest of the app — and if it ever stops responding, the next action quietly starts a
  fresh one rather than failing.

Verify the download

Get-FileHash .\SysManager-v1.78.7.exe -Algorithm SHA256

Expected SHA256: 4C84C6AE265444B91E59524D48C8600CB98A11ACF41DB309589061A377364D4A

This build is not code-signed, so Windows will warn on first launch. That is
expected for a small independent app: see what the warning says and what to
click.
Code signing is planned through the SignPath Foundation,
which provides free certificates to open-source projects, with signing performed by
SignPath.io. Until then, the SHA256 above and the build
attestation below are what establish that a download is the genuine build.

Code signing policy

This release is not code-signed. The team roles, release-approval process and
privacy policy required by the SignPath Foundation programme
are documented in advance under Code signing
policy. That
documentation is a prerequisite for applying, not evidence of a certificate. The
attribution line naming SignPath as the signing provider will appear here once a
certificate is actually issued.

This program will not transfer any information to other networked systems unless
specifically requested by the user or the person installing or operating it. Full
privacy policy.

Verify where this binary came from

This exe was built by GitHub Actions from this public source, and the build is
recorded in the Sigstore public transparency log. With the
GitHub CLI:

gh attestation verify .\SysManager-v1.78.7.exe --repo laurentiu021/SystemManager

That proves which commit and workflow produced this exact binary, something the
SHA256 file cannot show, since it is published alongside the exe it describes.
Each release also ships SysManager-v1.78.7.sbom.json, a CycloneDX inventory of
every dependency resolved for this build.
