    KSwitcher v0.6.38 Stable

    agrynco released this 2026-11-04 17:25:11 +02:00 | 0 commits to main since this release

    Latest Windows release

    v0.6.38 — 2026-11-04

    Changes

    • Clipboard history loads RichEdit only when an HTML/RTF preview actually needs it. Empty history, plain text and image-only previews no longer initialize it unnecessarily.
    • Plain text previews retain Unicode and line breaks without converting the text to RTF. Plain and formatted preview payloads share the existing bounded text-preview cache.
    • Esc still clears hidden history rows and preview caches while preserving the remembered selection/top item. Closing or replacing a search now cancels obsolete preview work before loading/decoding where possible, and discards completed stale results.
    • A RichEdit control that was needed for formatted text is cleared and reused, not repeatedly destroyed/recreated. This avoids additional initialization on reopening. Settings, shortcuts, stored clipboard contents, formatting on paste and OCR behavior are unchanged.

    Validation

    Staged build and tests cover dictionary equivalence for 140,939 words, 105 sync checks, wheel batching, 315 native checks, 561 input checks, screenshot UI/PNG/notification registration, 48 updater checks and updater progress UI. Added checks for plain previews without RichEdit, retained HTML rendering, lazy control creation and cleanup through Esc. Isolated real-window tests also verified formatted previews after reopening.

    A controlled local comparison measured 0.72 MiB less private working set after Esc for empty history, 0.66 MiB for plain text, 0.48 MiB for formatted text and 0.53 MiB for images. These are isolated test-process comparisons, not the application's total RAM or a guaranteed reduction on another computer. The reported 7 MiB plateau on a different laptop was not reproduced. No working-set trimming was used; closing the history window does not promise an exact return to startup memory.

    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. 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.
