    v0.7.1 Stable

    jkaindl released this 2026-07-14 13:31:32 +00:00 | 70 commits to main since this release

    v0.7.1 — Windows hotfix

    Fixes the Windows screensaver dying instantly on machines without the .NET 8 Desktop Runtime (which Windows 10/11 does not ship). In v0.7.0 the .scr and the installer were built framework-dependent by mistake — Preview, Settings and the saver itself silently exited on a clean Windows 11. The Windows build is now self-contained: the .NET runtime is bundled, no prerequisite besides WebView2 (preinstalled on Windows 11). The download is correspondingly larger — that's the bundled runtime.

    Also fixed: the installer's post-install "Open Screen Saver settings" action used an invalid rundll32 call and errored with "Fehler in desk.cpl: Eintrag fehlt: @screensaver" — it now goes through control.exe.

    Assets

    • KuroScreensaver-Setup-0.7.1.exe — one-click Windows installer (recommended)
    • KuroScreensaver-windows.zip — portable Windows .scr (extract, right-click → Install)
    • KuroScreensaver-native-app-macos.zip — notarized macOS Metal app (unchanged engine, rebuilt as 0.7.1)

    macOS and the web engine are functionally unchanged from v0.7.0.
