  • 0.0.1

RunX 0.0.1 by CatBraaain is a lightweight Windows utility designed to launch executable files with fine-grained privilege control, automatic duplicate-instance prevention, and integrated window-management rules. Positioned in the System Tools / Launchers category, the program intercepts shortcut or command-line calls, evaluates the requested elevation level, and optionally suppresses additional windows if an identical process is already active, making it useful for administrators who need to ensure that sensitive scripts or installers run only once and with the correct rights. Typical use cases include enforcing single-instance background services, launching kiosk-style front ends that must not overlap, and scripting scheduled tasks that require administrative tokens without triggering multiple UAC prompts. Because RunX exposes its settings through both an INI-style configuration file and command-line switches, it can be embedded in batch files, AutoHotkey macros, or software installers that must guarantee orderly startup behavior across reboots or user sessions. Version 0.0.1 represents the first public release, so feature additions beyond the core privilege, deduplication, and window-placement engine are expected in future builds, yet the current build already supports 64-bit Windows 10 and 11 environments without additional dependencies. The software is available for free on get.nero.com, with downloads provided via trusted Windows package sources such as winget, always delivering the latest version, and supporting batch installation of multiple applications.
