PC Workman is now on the Microsoft Store.

No more "download a random zip" click Install, .exe below stays for anyone who wants the portable build.

This release is mostly stability. Before shipping to the Store, I ran PC Workman through a set of custom stress scenarios, 100% CPU, 100% RAM pressure, thermal throttling, long multi-hour sessions, rapid page switching, to see how it behaves when a machine is actually suffering. It found real problems. They're fixed.

Critical fix, no more system freeze.

Under sustained load, the optimizer could suspend a process it should never touch: dwm.exe (draws your screen), explorer.exe (your desktop), or PC Workman's own process The result was a frozen screen until a restart. There is now one authoritative guard that every optimization path consults: OS-critical processes and PC Workman itself can never be suspended, idle-prioritized or memory-trimmed. Anti-cheat engines (Vanguard, EAC, BattlEye, FACEIT, and more) were already protected and stay protected.

Also in this build:

  • The learning engine now works on every machine. It learns per-workload baselines from whatever real signal exists (CPU temp with LibreHardwareMonitor, GPU temp on NVIDIA, CPU load always),

    so "what's normal for my PC" fills in even without extra sensors.

  • Live sensors are driven by one always-on background collector, so temperatures and the overlay work whether or not a page is open.

  • Auto RAM Flush and TURBO features now run from the dashboard with no page kept open.
  • Store installs can finally save history and learned data (writable path fix).
  • Optional "Run as administrator" at startup for HKLM entries and power plans.
  • Scaling fixes for small screens and 125% laptops.
  • hck_GPT understands more natural temperature questions, in Polish and English.
