PlexiChore 1.1.1 — Windows (pre-release)
Pre-release
Pre-release
A bug-fix update for the PlexiChore Windows host.
What's fixed
- Touch and pen now work in Primary mode when a monitor is attached. In 1.1.0, Primary mode moves your monitor to the left of the tablet, and every touch and pen stroke landed on that monitor instead of the tablet. Extend and Mirror weren't affected.
Nothing else changed since 1.1.0. The Android app needs no update.
Pre-release. Tested on Windows 11 (GTX 1060) with a Galaxy Tab S8 (Android 16). Please report issues.
Downloads
| File | For |
|---|---|
| PlexiChoreSetup-1.1.1.exe | Windows 10 (1809) or newer, 64-bit. Installer: Start menu entry, uninstaller, and optional start with Windows and firewall rules. Installs over 1.1.0. |
| PlexiChore-Windows-1.1.1-portable.exe | The same app as a single file that runs without installing. It's large (~229 MB) because the .NET runtime is built in, and the first launch takes up to ~30 s while it unpacks. |
| SHA256SUMS.txt | Checksums of both files. |
| Android app | Use PlexiChore-Android-1.0.0.apk from v1.0.0. |
The Mac app is unchanged; get it from v1.0.0.
Install
- Close PlexiChore if it's running (right-click the tray icon → Exit).
- Run PlexiChoreSetup-1.1.1.exe. The files are not code-signed yet, so Windows SmartScreen may say "Windows protected your PC". Click More info → Run anyway. You can check the download against SHA256SUMS.txt first.
- For Extend and Primary, the app installs the signed, open-source Virtual Display Driver from Extended display → Install (one administrator prompt). If you used 1.1.0 it's already installed.
Full setup and connection steps: see the 1.1.0 notes.
Good to know
- In Primary mode the taskbar and new windows go to the tablet, but apps that remember their last position (Terminal, Explorer, browsers) reopen on your monitor. Drag them over or press Win+Shift+←/→. With no monitor plugged in, everything is on the tablet.
Known limits
- The Wi-Fi stream is not encrypted. Use the USB cable, or Wi-Fi only on networks you trust (connecting still needs your approval on the PC). USB is also smoother at 2560×1600.
- With no monitor: PlexiChore starts only after you sign in to Windows; a tablet's first Wi-Fi pairing can't be approved (pair once with a monitor or use USB); starting the PC with no monitor hasn't been tested yet.
- Up to 60 Hz. Exclusive-fullscreen games may fail to capture; HDR isn't supported.
- UAC prompts and the lock screen can't be captured.
- Changing the virtual display's list of resolutions requires Repair (administrator).
