Enconvo for Windows is in beta and ships on the Beta update channel. It is built for everyday use, but things can still change between builds. If something breaks, tell us on the feedback site.
Current Beta: 2.5.13 Beta 3 (2.5.13-beta-3). To see which version you have, open Settings → General → Updates.

Requirements

  • Windows 10 version 2004 (build 19041) or later, or Windows 11.
  • 64-bit Intel/AMD (x64). There is no build for Windows on Arm yet.
  • Microsoft Edge WebView2 Runtime. Enconvo’s windows run on it. Windows 11 has it built in. On Windows 10, see Troubleshooting if the windows stay blank.

Download the Beta

The Beta comes as an installer, Enconvo-<version>-win32-x64-setup.exe. The file name carries the Beta’s version number. For the current Beta, 2.5.13 Beta 3, download Enconvo-2.5.13-beta-3-win32-x64-setup.exe. To always get the newest Beta, run this in PowerShell. It reads the Beta feed, downloads the installer to your Downloads folder, and checks that the file arrived intact.

Install

1

Run the installer

Open the .exe you downloaded. If Windows shows Windows protected your PC, click More info, then Run anyway. SmartScreen shows this for apps it doesn’t know yet.
2

Choose a folder

Enconvo installs for your account only and doesn’t need administrator rights. The default folder is %LOCALAPPDATA%\Programs\Enconvo. If you pick another one, it must be empty or already hold Enconvo.
3

Open Enconvo

Leave Open Enconvo checked on the last page, or open Enconvo from the Start menu later. Its icon appears in the taskbar’s notification area.
4

Sign in

Sign in with your Enconvo account, then continue with the Quick Start.
If Enconvo is running when you install, the installer asks to close it first.

What works on Windows

Update

A Beta build stays on the Beta channel. To change it, open Settings → General and set Update Channel. See Updates. Enconvo checks for a new version on its own. When one is ready, click Update in the Chat Window. You can also check now in Settings → General → Updates. The update installs in place: Enconvo closes, shows the installer’s progress, and opens again on the new version.

Troubleshooting

Remove Enconvo

Open Settings → Apps → Installed apps (on Windows 10, Settings → Apps → Apps & features), find Enconvo, and choose Uninstall. Your settings and chats stay in the .config\enconvo folder in your user folder (%USERPROFILE%\.config\enconvo). Delete that folder to remove them too.
