First public release.

WinFocus draws a thin colored border around the monitor that holds the focused window, and a second border around the focused window itself (hidden while that window is maximized or fullscreen). Native Win32, single 150 KB exe, no runtime, no tray icon, no service.

Install

  1. Save winfocus.exe somewhere permanent, for example C:\Tools\WinFocus\.
  2. From a terminal in that folder: winfocus.exe --install and approve the administrator prompt.

To remove: winfocus.exe --uninstall. See the README for options such as colors and widths.

Notes

  • The exe is not code-signed, so Windows SmartScreen may show "Windows protected your PC" on first run. Choose "More info" and "Run anyway", or build from source with build.cmd.
  • Requires Windows 10 or 11.
