lukebarone/DefaultPrinter

This system is a standalone Windows utility designed to allow users to select a new default printer without requiring administrative rights. It provides a graphical interface to list installed printers and manages the necessary registry settings to override Windows 10's automatic default printer behavior. The application is packaged as a UWP/Win32 bridge to ensure full trust execution while maintaining a user-friendly experience.

This change introduces the foundational packaging structure for the 'ChooseDefaultPrinter' application within the WapProjTemplate2 location. It adds the Windows Application Packaging Project (WapProjTemplate2.wapproj) which configures the build for multiple architectures (x86, x64, ARM, ARM64) and sets the target platform to Windows 10 (version 10.0.14393.0 minimum). The package manifest (Package.appxmanifest) defines the app identity, display name, and capabilities including internet access and full trust execution. Additionally, an .editorconfig file is added to enforce code style rules inferred from the codebase, and necessary image assets for the app tile and splash screen are included as content.

WapProjTemplate2 · high confidence

Added the Windows Application Packaging Project (WAP) and its associated manifest to enable building the 'Choose Default Printer' application as a UWP/Win32 bridge package. The package is configured to target Windows 10 (version 10.0.14393.0) for both Universal and Desktop device families, includes necessary visual assets (logos, splash screen), and grants the 'runFullTrust' capability to allow the underlying VB.NET desktop component to run with full system privileges without requiring admin rights for the user.

WapProjTemplate1 · high confidence

This change introduces the initial version of the 'Default Printer' application, a standalone Windows utility designed to help users easily select a new default printer without requiring administrative rights. The release includes the Visual Studio solution file (ChooseDefaultPrinter.sln) configuring the project for multiple architectures (x86, x64, ARM, ARM64) and platforms (Debug/Release), along with comprehensive documentation in README.md explaining how to compile, use, and deploy the tool via Group Policy or PDQ Deploy.

This change introduces the initial version of the Choose Default Printer application, a Windows Forms tool designed to simplify setting the system default printer on Windows 10. The utility provides a main interface listing all installed printers, allowing users to select a new default via a dedicated button or by double-clicking a printer in the list. To ensure the application can successfully override Windows 10's automatic default printer management, it automatically checks and sets the necessary registry key (LegacyDefaultPrinterMode). The release also includes an About dialog, a Help button, and a feature to open the system Printers folder directly from the application.
