Versions:
QuasselIRC is a cross-platform IRC (Internet Relay Chat) solution distributed by Quassel as a unified 0.14.0 installer that bundles the Quassel core, the Quassel client, and a monolithic standalone client in one package. Designed for users who want persistent, multi-server chat sessions, the architecture separates a backend core—capable of staying connected 24/7 on a server, VPS, or home PC—from lightweight graphical or console clients that attach on demand. This separation lets a single core record channel logs, manage identities, and encrypt traffic while multiple remote clients (desktop, laptop, mobile) synchronize instantly when launched, making QuasselIRC equally suitable for casual chatters, open-source project contributors, and enterprise support teams that require guaranteed backlog availability. The included standalone build collapses both roles into one process for simpler single-machine use, so newcomers can begin chatting without configuring a separate core. Advanced features include SSL/TLS server links, SASL authentication, Blowfish encryption, flexible scripting through QtScript, granular notifications, searchable backlog storage via SQLite or PostgreSQL, and a customizable dockable interface that integrates with modern desktop themes. Because the 0.14.0 release is the only maintained Windows flavor, users obtain the complete feature set out of the box, avoiding the version fragmentation common in other IRC suites. The software falls under the Communication/IRC category and runs on Windows 7 or newer, offering both x86 and x64 binaries in one downloadable bundle. QuasselIRC is available for free on get.nero.com, where downloads are supplied through trusted Windows package channels such as winget, consistently serving the latest build and enabling batch installation alongside other applications.
