CoMachina desktop assistant (Copilot offline)

CoMachina strives to bring a touch of coolness by automating, transforming, and revolutionizing the way you navigate through Windows and tailor it to your needs.

Somehow, my work is slowly becoming more like the Microsoft Copilot.

Introducing CoMachina: A hybrid WebView2 app designed to simplify navigation through Windows 11/10. It's a static client currently without AI integration, but it not only talks like the Microsoft Copilot but also takes action. You can access and adjust crucial areas of Windows and even make some of the most important settings with it. I'm not quite sure which direction to take it in yet, eagerly awaiting what Microsoft has in store for AI and app integration. Feel free to check it out if you're interested.

The app is supposed to do what the Microsoft Copilot was initially meant to do (hopefully it'll be able to do that someday) – navigate through options, open settings, and make system handling easier. Over time, the app will encompass many functions and possibly absorb some features or entire apps from me. Microsoft is implementing its AI plans more aggressively. Even our beloved Notepad might be affected. Curious to see where Microsoft heads, and I'll be throwing down with CoMachina accordingly. The app has just grown up and exited the preview status. Feel free to try it out and drop some suggestions.

How does it work?

Simply run the CoMachina.exe. You can delete the cache folder CoMachina.exe.WebView2 at any time.

You have the chat box in front of you and enter search terms, inquiries, keywords, and the results are presented to you in real-time.

As an example, let's say you're searching for 'I want to install an app.' You can also search for the short keyword 'install' here. The result is the same. By the way, this search query allows you to install some popular apps with 'winget'. Another popular keyword you can remember should be 'appx' or 'uninstall.' This allows you to remove unwanted default apps in Windows 10/11. And so it continues. Have fun and play around with the queries. Currently popular keywords are 'clean up,' 'set up,' 'version', 'taskbar', 'vivetool'.

Agenda

For the future, CoMachina could acquire functionalities in this direction.

• Integrate Microsoft Copilot
• Enable users to control various aspects of their Windows 11 system
• Let the user feed with scripts/data, which will be processed
• Provide quick access to important settings
• Implement features to assist users
• Allow users to customize system settings
• Educate users about best practices for maintaining privacy and security.
• Analyze user feedback to enhance the app's capabilities over time.
• Btw., The app will run on Windows 10, too, about 98%.
