• Release Notes
-
Window Reuse & Targeting – You can now pass a windowName (via CLI or electroncapture:// deep links)
to reopen and retarget an existing window instead of spawning a new one. The main process tracks
named windows, keeps immutable webPreferences aligned, and reapplies size/position/pin/fullscreen/
minimize states while respecting per-monitor scale. A new test-window-reuse.html helper builds sample
links so you can try the flow quickly. -
Standalone Launches – Added the
--multiinstanceflag (alias --standalone) so power users can opt out
of the single-instance lock. Use it when you truly need a completely separate Electron process with
its own main windows; default behavior remains unchanged. -
Deep Link Quality-of-Life – Deep links gain first-class windowName parsing plus better normalization
of URL, window geometry, and pin/minimize toggles, making scripted launches more predictable across
monitors.
