I've spent 3 years creating and polishing my Windows multi-tool (Volta v1.7). Looking for a tester community!

Hey everyone,

I wanted to share a project I’ve been building and actively maintaining for the past three years called Volta.

I want to be completely transparent about the development of Volta: I started this project using tutorials and AI-generated code to get the raw components. My role over the last few years was to piece everything together into a user-friendly menu, design the system flow, and spend years polishing the menus and revamping the overall UI consistency.

What I focused on for the new v1.7 Release:

  • Zero-Lag UI Animation: I started the animation idea as a joke and perfected it over the months to make a beautiful exit/enter animation without causing CPU lag spikes.
  • New sub-menus: Added lots of new sub-menus.
  • Bug Fixing: Fixed a lot of stability bugs and usability glitches.

>(The whole changelog is in the README.txt)

Why I'm posting here: The tool is running great on my machines, but I've reached the point where I need testers. I want to build a small, stable community of 5 to 10 tech-savvy people who love messing with command-line tools.

I haven't been able to fully bug-test the new 1.7 beta across different environments, so I would really appreciate it if someone finds any bugs or glitches. If you are able, please try to break it intentionally! Let me know what you find, and I will fix them in a hotfix shortly after.

>GitHub Repository: https://github.com/Bbloksrblx/Volta

I greatly appreciate you taking the time to read my post!

Launching a batch file from a hotkey on my drawing tablet?

I am a PNGtuber that multistreams so when I stream i have to launch several programs.

I have a drawing tablet that has hotkeys on the side that CAN be used to launch programs as i have one button set to launch my art software for when I draw.

I wanted to use another button to launch all my programs for streaming in a similar way, but my tablet software can't do multiple files hence why i stumbled into wanting a batch file.

I made the batch file successfully, it works launching it inside the folder with the shortcuts, but when i try to launch the same batch file from the hotkey, it can't locate the shortcuts. I was wondering if theres a way to fix this so i can launch the bat from the hotkey?

The code of the batch file for reference:

rem comments should begin with rem

rem note: this file launches all of my favorite apps!

rem note: replace the names below with your own..

@ echo off

start OBS

start PNGTUBE

start STREAMBOT

@ echo on

I copied the code pretty directly from a website tutorial on making a batch file, hence why it has the notes.

Any help or advice would be really appreciated!

Not just another PacMan in Batch

https://github.com/JerryASNew/batchpacman/releases/tag/v1.0

It needs win10/11. You will have to install the included custom font (BatchPac.ttf) and use it in the terminal. I tried to comment it pretty well to be educational as well. I’d love any feedback.

It plays pretty genuinely in its own way, the ghost get faster and faster as you progress, the fruit spawn accurately as well.

A ghost can be behind another ghost, but you can eat a power pellet with a ghost on it and you’re fine.

Keep the movement key pressed for fastest speed, or you can have a literal second to decide which way to move when you’re getting cornered.
