Release list
v0.6.1
v0.6.1
- When selecting an entry from Clipboard History or Recent Files, the search box now keeps the prefix (
/cbor/recent) instead of clearing it fully, making it easier to pick another entry right after - Added Ctrl+D to clear the search query. While the OCR preview is open, it acts the same as the Close button instead
v0.6.0
New Features
- You can now press Shift+Enter on a selected item in the results list (both regular file search and the recent files list) to open its containing folder in Explorer. For shortcut (.lnk) files, this opens the folder containing the actual target file rather than the shortcut itself.
v0.5.1
New Features
- "Recent Files" (
/recent) now supports files stored in OneDrive for Business and SharePoint - The retention period and maximum number of items shown in "Recent Files" can now be configured in Settings (defaults: 180 days / 50 items)
- Added input validation for the maximum clipboard history size
Bug Fixes
- Fixed an issue where "Recent Files" could take a long time to load in certain environments
- Fixed an issue where the app could unexpectedly quit while using "Recent Files"
- Fixed an issue where some shortcuts with Japanese characters in their file names would not appear in the list
v0.5.0
New Features
- Added a "Recent Files" feature (invoke with
/recent)- In addition to Windows' built-in "Recent Files", it also supports Office's
(Excel/Word/PowerPoint) own recent-file history, as well as files stored
on OneDrive - The invocation keyword can be changed from the Settings screen
- In addition to Windows' built-in "Recent Files", it also supports Office's
Bug Fixes
- Fixed an issue where the search results area could briefly flash white
when the window was shown again - Fixed an issue where, if the mouse cursor was hovering over the search
results list, using the keyboard to navigate could cause the selected
item to unexpectedly change
v0.4.0
v0.4.0
- Calculator now supports parentheses
( )for explicit operator precedence (e.g.(1+3)/3,2*(3+4)). - Calculation results and URL encode/decode results are now shown alongside file search results instead of replacing them, so you can see both at once.
- System commands (shutdown / restart / sleep) and clipboard history are now invoked with an explicit prefix (
/shutdown,/restart,/sleep,/cb). Each command's keyword can be customized individually in Settings. - Typing
/now shows a list of available prefix commands, ranked by how often you use them.
v0.3.5
v0.3.5
- Added a new "About" category in Settings, showing the app version and links to the GitHub repository, X (@hidecode365), and Buy Me a Coffee to support the developer.
v0.3.4
v0.3.4
- The URL encode/decode auto-detection feature now only activates when the input starts with
http://orhttps://. Previously, any input containing non-ASCII characters (e.g. a plain Japanese search term) would trigger an encode result, pushing more relevant results (like file matches) further down the list. Restricting the feature to URL-like input eliminates this noise.
v0.3.3
v0.3.3
- Added a "Keep %20 as-is" option to the URL encode/decode auto-detection feature (Settings → Calculator & Conversion, off by default). When enabled, only the space character (
%20) is left undecoded during URL decoding — useful for apps that misinterpret a literal space as the end of a URL — while all other%XXsequences are still decoded normally. This setting only affects decoding and has no effect on the encode path. - Added a small label ("Decoded result" / "Encoded result") above the URL encode/decode result in the search list, making it clear which operation produced the displayed text.
v0.3.2
v0.3.2
- Added URL encode/decode auto-detection in search results: pasting a URL-encoded string decodes it, and pasting text containing non-ASCII characters (e.g. Japanese) encodes it using
encodeURI-equivalent behavior (preserving URL structural characters like:,/,?,#, etc.). Results can be copied to clipboard via Enter. - Renamed the "Calculator" settings category to "Calculator & Conversion" to accommodate the new URL encode/decode feature as a sibling toggle, and restructured the settings UI into reusable "feature block" groups (main toggle + indented sub-settings, grayed out when disabled).
- Fixed a bug where the calculator's expression detection (
/[+\-*/]/regex) was too permissive and misfired on URLs and other strings containing digits and slashes, blocking the URL decode result from being shown.
v0.3.1
v0.3.1
- Fixed misleading OCR description text that claimed support for mixed Japanese/English recognition. The text now correctly reflects that Windows OCR API is used assuming the Japanese language pack is installed, with guidance to add additional OCR language packs via Settings → Time & Language → Language if needed.
- Fixed misaligned indentation in the OCR settings description text.
