Highlights
- A fresh look: WinDesk gets a cleaner, more modern logo. Client and Host are now instantly told apart by colour — blue for the controlling Client, red for the sharing Host.
- Run with no installation: Client and Host are now also available for Windows as a portable version. Just unzip and start — no installation, no administrator rights. Ideal for quick support jobs or from a USB stick.
A fresh look
- A clearer, more modern logo across the app, website and portal.
- Client and Host carry the same mark in a different colour — so they stay unmistakable even as a small icon in the taskbar.
No installation (portable)
- Portable version of Client and Host for Windows: download, unzip, run.
- No installation and no administrator rights required — the app runs from any folder.
- Settings stay tied to the signed-in user; to remove it, just delete the folder.
