Auto Profile Switcher

Auto Profile Switcher solves the biggest gap in StreamDeck's Smart Profile feature: apps that StreamDeck simply cannot see.

Microsoft Teams, WhatsApp, Windows Terminal, and hundreds of other modern Windows apps are distributed as MSIX packages - they run from a protected directory that changes on every update. StreamDeck's built-in Smart Profiles match apps by executable path, so these apps are permanently invisible to it. Elgato's own documentation acknowledges this limitation.

Auto Profile Switcher fixes this. It detects the foreground window using the same Win32 API that Windows itself uses - GetForegroundWindow() → process name - making it immune to path changes, updates, and repackaging.

1.1.0

Feature Per-device profile assignments

Assign a different target profile to each enabled Stream Deck.

Profile dropdowns show only profiles belonging to that device.

Existing single-profile rules migrate to the first detected Stream Deck.

Improvement Device lifecycle

Disabled devices are hidden without losing their assignments.

Re-enabled devices recover their saved assignments.

Forgetting a device removes its assignments and orphaned profile-patch tracking on the next plugin start.

Improvement Property inspector

Detection results are session-only and clear after adding a rule.

Bug Fix Reliability

Profile switching state and override depth are tracked independently per device.
