Release notes

• Upgrading no longer resets your device rules. Installing a new version over an older one replaced config.json with the default list, so a room would quietly go back to choosing the wrong device. Your settings are now kept across an upgrade.
• Uninstalling now leaves config.json in place as well, so reinstalling or rebuilding a machine brings back the rules it already had rather than the defaults. To clear a machine completely, delete C:\ProgramData\AudioSwytch by hand.

Recommended for anyone running 1.3.0. Nothing else changed - the app behaves exactly as before.

• Keeps the Windows default audio device set to the best one that is actually plugged in - speakers and microphone both.
• You decide the order: a small JSON file at C:\ProgramData\AudioSwytch\config.json names each device by a fragment of its name and ranks it. The lowest number wins.
• Watches Windows audio endpoints, so it reacts as devices are plugged in, removed or switched on, and falls back to the next device on your list.
• Edit the rules and they take effect immediately - no restart and no logging out.
• Runs in the system tray and starts at logon as a scheduled task. It needs administrator rights to install, but none to run.
• Pause the watcher from the tray menu when you want to set a device by hand.
• 7-day free trial on each machine, then a licence per device. Seats are managed in the console, and a device can release its own seat.
• Windows 10 and Windows 11. Requires the .NET 8 Desktop Runtime.
