# Latest Windows release

## v0.6.42 — 2026-11-04

## Changes
- Replaced the history filter dropdown with a one-click **★ Pinned only** checkbox. Checked shows pinned entries; unchecked shows all entries.
- The checkbox sits on the left, with the search field immediately alongside it. The search field keeps its right edge aligned with the history list when the window is resized.
- Existing filter state, search, Unpin behavior and persistence across Esc are preserved. No shortcut or default changed. Clear history still deletes every entry after confirmation, including hidden entries.

## Validation
The dedicated 500-entry history integration suite verifies checkbox clicks, combined search/filter, removal after Unpin, remembered state after helper restart, text/image paste and helper shutdown. The compact layout was checked visually in the installed development build.

The release build also passed dictionary equivalence (140,939 words), 105 sync checks, 315 native checks, 561 input checks, screenshot UI/save/registration, 48 updater checks and updater progress UI.

## Upgrade
Choose **Update** in the tray menu. Legacy v0.3.0–v0.4.1 clients first receive the v0.4.2 compatibility bridge, then the current full release. v0.2.3 and earlier require manual installation.
For manual installation, exit KSwitcher, close screenshot editors and extract the entire ZIP into its installation folder. Keep personal `data/` and customized dictionaries.

Download **KSwitcher-win-x64.zip** with **SHA256SUMS.txt**. Keep all three executables together; history uses another instance of KSwitcher.exe, so no fourth executable is required. The package contains no personal settings, credentials or clipboard history.

Publish stable `release-vX.Y.Z` tags matching the executable version. Keep `v0.4.2` as the last legacy tag.
