Highlights

  • Windows installer: download coolercast-windows-x64.msi, double-click, done. It installs to Program Files, starts the service and adds CoolerCast to the Start menu; uninstall from Settings → Apps.
  • Linux support (x86-64, systemd): the same service and CLI, installed with three commands. CPU temperature comes from the kernel's hwmon drivers, no extra driver needed.
  • Check for updates button in the settings window. It only contacts GitHub when you click it.
  • No Visual C++ Redistributable needed: the executables include the C runtime.
  • Clearer install guide in the README, with troubleshooting for both systems.

Install

Windows 10/11

  1. Remove the official DeepCool app (both apps would fight over the display).
  2. For the CPU temperature, install PawnIO: winget install namazso.PawnIO.
  3. Run coolercast-windows-x64.msi. The file is not code-signed yet: if SmartScreen warns, choose More info → Run anyway.

Updating from 0.2.0 installed with the MSI: just run the new MSI. If you installed 0.2.0 from the zip, run coolercast uninstall as administrator and delete the old folder first.

Linux

curl -LO https://github.com/moicd/coolercast/releases/latest/download/coolercast-linux-x86_64.tar.gz
tar xzf coolercast-linux-x86_64.tar.gz
sudo coolercast/install.sh

See the README for details.

Notes

  • Tested on an AK400 DIGITAL with an Intel CPU on Windows. Linux is tested in CI (install, service, settings) but not yet with a cooler connected; reports are welcome.
  • SHA256SUMS.txt lists the checksums of every file.
