Major Feature Updates (5.24)

New option to export/import settings! (#63)

When you first start WindowTop, the assistant window will show an option to import existing settings with a single click.
After the import is complete, the app will restart with your imported settings.

windowtop.load.settings.from.wizard.webm

If you don't have settings saved, you can click next as usual. In the last step, the assistant window will now show an option to export (backup) the settings you just set:

The backup file can also include your license if desired.
Here are some screenshots showing the backup option:

You can now quickly export settings and restore/reuse them on another device. The export creates a JSON file.
When exporting, you have the option to include the license key, allowing a quick method to reuse your license key and preferred settings.

To load settings, click "Import settings," then browse to the file you created with the export option.

Major feature updates (5.-->23<--)

Non-Microsoft Store activation now supports activation by email account!

We developed a new licensing feature that allows you to link your license key with your email (if you want), so next time, you can activate the app using your email address.
This feature is available for new purchases only (10$ for the non-Microsoft Store activation instead of 15$ one)
You can also use this activation on the Microsoft Store version.

After applying the license key, the app will show you the option to link it to your email.

You don't have to do it. It is optional. But if you did it, next time, you can activate the app on another device using the option.

Here is a demo video that shows activation by email:

Activate.by.email.login.or.verification.link.webm

Better error handling of activation issues (non-Microsoft store activation)

Improved design of activation flows, such as:

If the license key is not working and you can't apply it, the program will display a "Contact support" button
If there is a license issue, it will show you your options in more detail with better and more helpful information.
For example, in case that you exceed that maximum amount of allowed devices, it will look like this:

Everything is fully translated into all languages.

Other license fixes (non-Microsoft store activation):

Fixed: Users reported that after the bios update, they mistakenly detected that the device had changed and asked for a second activation.
It should be resolved now, even without using activation by email. It was a bug that required reimplementing the entire activation system. Part of the improvements is to fix this bug as well.

Dark mode improved by fixing an issue that the colors were wrong (#362)

Before	After

We added it as a new option called "Keep colors" that you can quickly enable via the toolbar:

Sometimes, this may cause the text to be unclear, so if you experience this, you can quickly disable it from the toolbar.

It is also available in the quick start settings:
