Does this utility still work with Matrix but also current version of Win10?

Checking github shows that this app hasn't been updated in 6 years.

I'm still using it with latest Kodi and Win10 build.

I'm using it too, I don't know if it still doing anything useful, but originally it was to keep focus when I was using external players.

Hello,

There is a way to disable the shortkey WIN+S (Option to start the GUI) ?
I use WIN+S for another thing.

Thank you

Have you found a solution to this?

Has anyone tested whether this works for Windows 11?

Hi

Since the last Windows update I get the following error message:
Warning: This variable has not been assigned a value.
Specifically: OSVersion (a global variable)
Line#
116: if (OSVersion > = 6.2)
For more details, read the documentation for #Warn.

Windows 10 22H2, unfortunately a reinstallation does not bring success.

I had this problem a while back. There were also some other strange issues with my set up. I discovered that an upgrade had corrupted my windows set up, probably due to my power supply being interrupted during the upgrade.

Anyway, I followed the instructions at "https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/reinstall-windows-d8369486-3e33-7d9c-dccc-859e2b022fc7#bkmk_reinstall_windows_10_using_installation_media&WindowsVersion=Windows_10" and took the option to Reinstall Windows 10 using installation media and "Keep Everything".

This solved the problem for me.

Thanks for your answer.
I tried to restore it, unfortunately the problem came even after the restore. So now I have reinstalled Windows completely.

Hello,

i have a problem with Launcher4Kodi on Windows 11. After the Windows Update May 2024 (was also a problem on the preview update for may released in april) Kodi will not start after sleep anymore. On reboot its all ok.
Hope its just a windows bug, not a change in Windows 11. Is there an alternative to start Kodi after resume from sleep?

Regards,
Andreas

Edit:
i found a solution, to open Kodi after sleep without Launcher4Kodi:

I used this tutorial / info:
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/answer...mes-out-of

Here is my config for the Task Scheduler (save as xml and import, change Path to Kodi, i use the portable version, otherwise remove the param -p. Starts 3 seconds after resume "PT3S")

Code:
