PaneKeeper 0.2.0

PaneKeeper 0.2.0: a new Windows 11 look, and Polish and English everywhere.

• New look (SJ Utility UI, shared with Clickloom, FolderPilot and Netlume): side navigation with your layouts, Mica, light and dark themes, Fluent icons, messages in the window instead of pop-ups, new app icon.
• Polish and English: window, tray menu, messages and errors. Follows the Windows display language; switch it in Settings, the choice is kept.
• Settings: start with Windows, language, theme, auto-restore, pause shortcuts, launch wait, open the data folder. About: version and project links.
• Deleting a layout can be undone from the message that follows.
• The installer carries the full licence texts of everything it ships (THIRD_PARTY_LICENSES.txt).
• Saving, restoring, shortcuts, auto-restore and monitor handling work as in 0.1.0; your layouts carry over.

Install: run PaneKeeper_0.2.0_x64-setup.exe (installs over 0.1.0). Per-user install, no admin prompt. Needs the Microsoft Edge WebView2 runtime (built into Windows 11; the installer fetches it if missing).

PaneKeeper 0.1.0

PaneKeeper puts every window back where it belongs, with one shortcut.

Save the position, size and monitor of your app windows as a named layout, then press its shortcut (Ctrl+Alt+1, 2, …) to restore the whole layout from any app. Built for multi-monitor desks.

In 0.1.0

• Named layouts with a global shortcut each; restore from the app, the tray or the shortcut
• To-scale monitor map that shows where every window lands; missing monitors drawn dashed, their windows mapped onto the primary monitor, never off-screen
• Per window: include it or not, and start the app if it isn't running
• Auto-restore when a bound monitor setup connects (off by default), pause, start with Windows
• DPI aware across mixed-scale monitors; light and dark themes

Install
Run PaneKeeper_0.1.0_x64-setup.exe. It installs for your user only, with no admin prompt. Needs Windows 10 or 11 with WebView2 (built in on Windows 11).

Privacy and safety
Layouts stay in %APPDATA%\PaneKeeper as JSON. No network access and no telemetry. PaneKeeper only moves and resizes windows: it never closes them, injects code, installs hooks or asks for admin rights.

Limits
Windows of apps running as administrator can't be moved (reported as blocked). Some apps restrict resizing. Virtual desktops aren't supported yet.
