Latest Windows release
v0.6.51 — 2026-11-06
Changes
- Add Telegram Web K chat language profiles in Google Chrome. Open a chat at
https://web.telegram.org/k/, then Settings → Languages → Languages for a chat... and select Telegram Web: name. Choose languages, then Use languages → Save. Applies to Alt+Shift, Win+Space, reverse Win+Shift+Space and Next layout. - Read the trusted Telegram address and chat header through Chrome accessibility. Refresh on foreground/focus and address/header events, without OCR, a polling timer or a browser extension. Web profiles are separate from Telegram Desktop profiles; identical chat names across accounts/browser profiles share a web profile. Web A and other browsers are not advertised as supported. Telegram Desktop and Teams remain unchanged; Viber OCR remains disabled.
- Add application-specific snippets. In Tools → Snippets, enable Only in these applications, enter comma-separated executable names or select an open application and choose Add app. Unchecked means everywhere. Matching ignores case and the optional
.exesuffix. Chrome scope applies to the whole browser. - Prefer an application-specific snippet over a global snippet with the same trigger. Allow the same trigger in disjoint application scopes and reject overlapping scopes. Keep existing snippets global. Preserve scopes in manual import/export and synchronization, with scope-aware merge conflicts. Validate the target application before insertion.
- Center Add app against its application selector.
Validation
Passed 674 chat-profile/snippet UI checks, 568 input checks (including app-specific precedence and global fallback), 108 sync checks, 332 native checks, complete dictionary equivalence (140,939 words), wheel, StayHere, Utilities, screenshot UI/save/registration, 54 updater checks and updater progress checks. Inspected the snippet editor at 250% scaling. Live Chrome checks read a Telegram chat name directly and observed cache activation/invalidation. Release binaries, package manifest, published assets and update selection are checked during publication.
Upgrade and compatibility
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 its configurator and screenshot editors, and extract the entire ZIP into its installation folder. Keep personal data/, customized dictionaries and your own tools. Keep the three KSwitcher executables together; StayHere runs independently.
Update every synchronizing PC to v0.6.51 or newer before sharing application-specific snippets. Older versions do not understand application restrictions and may treat scoped snippets as global. Keep a backup before downgrading. Settings with Telegram Web profiles require v0.6.51 or newer. Chat profiles remain local, included in manual export/import and excluded from cloud synchronization.
Download KSwitcher-win-x64.zip with SHA256SUMS.txt. 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.
