**Windows-MCP** is a lightweight, open-source project that enables seamless integration between AI agents and the Windows operating system. Acting as an MCP server bridges the gap between LLMs and the Windows operating system, allowing agents to perform tasks such as **file navigation, application control, UI interaction, QA testing,** and more. mcp-name: io.github.CursorTouch/Windows-MCP ## Updates - Windows-MCP reached `2M+ Users` in [Claude Desktop Extensiosn](https://claude.ai/directory). - Try out [๐ŸชŸWindows-Use](https://pypi.org/project/windows-use/), an agent built using Windows-MCP. - Windows-MCP is now available on [PyPI](https://pypi.org/project/windows-mcp/) (thus supports `uvx windows-mcp`) - Windows-MCP is added to [MCP Registry](https://github.com/modelcontextprotocol/registry) ### Supported Operating Systems - Windows 7 - Windows 8, 8.1 - Windows 10 - Windows 11 ## ๐ŸŽฅ Demos ## โœจ Key Features - **Seamless Windows Integration** Interacts natively with Windows UI elements, opens apps, controls windows, simulates user input, and more. - **Use Any LLM (Vision Optional)** Unlike many automation tools, Windows-MCP doesn't rely on any traditional computer vision techniques or specific fine-tuned models; it works with any LLMs, reducing complexity and setup time. - **Rich Toolset for UI Automation** Includes tools for basic keyboard, mouse operation and capturing window/UI state. - **Lightweight & Open-Source** Minimal dependencies and easy setup with full source code available under MIT license. - **Customizable & Extendable** Easily adapt or extend tools to suit your unique automation or AI integration needs. - **Real-Time Interaction** Typical latency between actions (e.g., from one mouse click to the next) ranges from **0.2 to 0.5 secs**, and may slightly vary based on the number of active applications and system load, also the inferencing speed of the llm. - **DOM Mode for Browser Automation** Special `use_dom=True` mode for State-Tool that focuses exclusively on web page content, filtering out browser UI elements for cleaner, more efficient web automation. Supports Chrome, Edge, and Firefox (Firefox uses an IAccessible2 fallback since it doesn't expose `RootWebArea` via UIA). ## ๐Ÿ› ๏ธInstallation **Note:** When you install this MCP server for the first time it may take a minute or two because of installing the dependencies in `pyproject.toml`. In the first run the server may timeout ignore it and restart it. ### Prerequisites - Python 3.13+ - UV (Package Manager) from Astra, install with `pip install uv` or `curl -LsSf https://astral.sh/uv/install.sh | sh` - `English` as the default language in Windows preferred else disable the `App-Tool` in the MCP Server for Windows with other languages. ### Run at Login Run the server directly when needed: ```shell uvx windows-mcp serve uvx windows-mcp serve --transport sse --host localhost --port 8000 uvx windows-mcp serve --transport streamable-http --host localhost --port 8000 ``` Install it as a background task that starts now and at every login: ```shell windows-mcp install # Or choose the HTTP transport and bind address explicitly windows-mcp install --transport sse --host 127.0.0.1 --port 8000 ``` This creates a per-user Scheduled Task named `windows-mcp-server` and a wrapper script at `~/.windows-mcp/start-server.cmd`. Use `windows-mcp uninstall` to remove it. Logs are written to `~/.windows-mcp/server.log` and `~/.windows-mcp/server.error.log`.
Install in Claude Desktop 1. Install [Claude Desktop](https://claude.ai/download). ```shell npm install -g @anthropic-ai/mcpb ``` 2. Configure the MCP server. **Option A: Install from PyPI (Recommended)** Use `uvx` to run the latest version directly from PyPI. Add this to your `claude_desktop_config.json`: ```json { "mcpServers": { "windows-mcp": { "command": "uvx", "args": [ "windows-mcp", "serve" ] } } } ``` **Option B: Install from Source** 1. Clone the repository: ```shell git clone https://github.com/CursorTouch/Windows-MCP.git cd Windows-MCP ``` 2. Add this to your `claude_desktop_config.json`: ```json { "mcpServers": { "windows-mcp": { "command": "uv", "args": [ "--directory", "", "run", "windows-mcp", "serve" ] } } } ``` 3. Fully restart Claude Desktop and verify the server appears in the MCP tools list. **Claude Desktop MSIX (Windows Store)** The MSIX-packaged Claude Desktop (Microsoft Store version) virtualizes `%APPDATA%`. This causes two main issues: 1. The config file is located at: `%LOCALAPPDATA%\Packages\Claude_pzs8sxrjxfjjc\LocalCache\Roaming\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json` (not `%APPDATA%\Claude\`). 2. Automatic installation from the "Claude Directory" will fail because the `${__dirname}` variable resolves to the incorrect (non-virtualized) path. **To configure Windows-MCP on the Windows Store version of Claude:** You must manually edit the configuration file. Note that Electron apps in the MSIX sandbox do not inherit the system `PATH`, so you must use the **full absolute path** to `uvx.exe` (or `uv.exe`). **Option A: Using pre-installed executable** 1. In a terminal, run `uv tool install windows-mcp`. 2. Use the generated executable in your config: ```json { "mcpServers": { "windows-mcp": { "command": "C:\\Users\\\\.local\\bin\\windows-mcp.exe", "args": ["serve"] } } } ``` **Option B: Using uvx** ```json { "mcpServers": { "windows-mcp": { "command": "C:\\Users\\\\.local\\bin\\uvx.exe", "args": ["windows-mcp", "serve"] } } } ``` **Option C: Install from Source** ```json { "mcpServers": { "windows-mcp": { "command": "C:\\Users\\\\.local\\bin\\uv.exe", "args": [ "--directory", "C:\\path\\to\\Windows-MCP", "run", "windows-mcp", "serve" ] } } } ``` Replace `` with your Windows username. To find the correct paths, run `where uvx`, `where windows-mcp`, or `where uv`. Fully quit Claude Desktop (Tray โ†’ Quit) and reopen after saving the config. For additional Claude Desktop integration troubleshooting, see the [MCP documentation](https://modelcontextprotocol.io/quickstart/server#claude-for-desktop-integration-issues).
Install in Perplexity Desktop 1. Install [Perplexity Desktop](https://apps.microsoft.com/detail/xp8jnqfbqh6pvf). 2. Open Perplexity Desktop and go to `Settings -> Connectors -> Add Connector -> Advanced`. 3. Enter the name as `Windows-MCP`, then paste one of the following configs. **Option A: Install from PyPI (Recommended)** ```json { "command": "uvx", "args": [ "windows-mcp", "serve" ] } ``` **Option B: Install from Source** ```json { "command": "uv", "args": [ "--directory", "", "run", "windows-mcp", "serve" ] } ``` 4. Click `Save`, then restart Perplexity Desktop if needed. For additional Claude Desktop integration troubleshooting, see the [Perplexity MCP Support](https://www.perplexity.ai/help-center/en/articles/11502712-local-and-remote-mcps-for-perplexity). The documentation includes helpful tips for checking logs and resolving common issues.
Install in Gemini CLI 1. Install Gemini CLI. ```shell npm install -g @google/gemini-cli ``` 2. Open `%USERPROFILE%/.gemini/settings.json`. 3. Add the `windows-mcp` config and save it. ```json { "theme": "Default", ... "mcpServers": { "windows-mcp": { "command": "uvx", "args": [ "windows-mcp", "serve" ] } } } ``` *Note: To run from source, replace the command with `uv` and args with `["--directory", "", "run", "windows-mcp", "serve"]`.* 4. Restart Gemini CLI.
Install in Qwen Code 1. Install Qwen Code. ```shell npm install -g @qwen-code/qwen-code@latest ``` 2. Open `%USERPROFILE%/.qwen/settings.json`. 3. Add the `windows-mcp` config and save it. ```json { "mcpServers": { "windows-mcp": { "command": "uvx", "args": [ "windows-mcp", "serve" ] } } } ``` *Note: To run from source, replace the command with `uv` and args with `["--directory", "", "run", "windows-mcp", "serve"]`.* 4. Restart Qwen Code.
Install in Codex CLI 1. Install Codex CLI. ```shell npm install -g @openai/codex ``` 2. Open `%USERPROFILE%/.codex/config.toml`. 3. Add the `windows-mcp` config and save it. ```toml [mcp_servers.windows-mcp] command="uvx" args=[ "windows-mcp", "serve" ] ``` *Note: To run from source, replace the command with `uv` and args with `["--directory", "", "run", "windows-mcp", "serve"]`.* 4. Restart Codex CLI.
Install in Autohand Code Add the published stdio server from a Windows terminal: ```shell autohand mcp add windows-mcp uvx windows-mcp serve ``` Add `--scope project` after `add` to keep the server configuration in the current project. See [Autohand Code](https://github.com/autohandai/code-cli/) for current installation and CLI details.
Install in Claude Code 1. Install [Claude Code](https://docs.anthropic.com/en/docs/claude-code/overview): ```shell npm install -g @anthropic-ai/claude-code ``` 2. Configure the server: **Option A: Install from PyPI (Recommended)** Use `uvx` to run the latest version directly from PyPI. ```shell claude mcp add --transport stdio windows-mcp -- uvx windows-mcp serve ``` **Option B: Install from Source** 1. Clone the repository: ```shell git clone https://github.com/CursorTouch/Windows-MCP.git cd Windows-MCP ``` 2. Run the following command in your terminal: ```shell claude mcp add --transport stdio windows-mcp -- uv --directory "" run windows-mcp serve ``` *Note: To make the server available across all projects, add `--scope user` to the command.* 3. Rerun Claude Code in terminal. Enjoy ๐Ÿฅณ **Note:** On Windows, if you encounter "Connection closed" errors, use the full path to `uvx.exe`: ```shell claude mcp add --transport stdio windows-mcp -- C:\Users\\.local\bin\uvx.exe windows-mcp serve ``` To verify the server is registered, run `claude mcp list`. Inside Claude Code, use `/mcp` to check server status. **WSL (Windows Subsystem for Linux)** If you run Claude Code from WSL, the MCP server must still execute on the Windows side (it needs Windows APIs for UI automation). Use `powershell.exe` as the command to bridge WSL and Windows: 1. Install `uv` on **Windows** (from a PowerShell terminal): ```powershell irm https://astral.sh/uv/install.ps1 | iex ``` 2. From your **WSL terminal**, register the server: ```shell claude mcp add windows-mcp --transport stdio -s user -- powershell.exe -Command "C:\Users\\.local\bin\uvx.exe windows-mcp serve" ``` Replace `` with your Windows username. The `-s user` flag makes the server available across all projects. 3. Restart Claude Code and verify with `/mcp`.
--- ## ๐Ÿ–ฅ๏ธ Running Windows-MCP Windows-MCP runs directly on your Windows machine and exposes its tools to the connected MCP client. ```shell # Runs with stdio transport (default) uvx windows-mcp serve # Or with SSE/Streamable HTTP for network access uvx windows-mcp serve --transport sse --host localhost --port 8000 uvx windows-mcp serve --transport streamable-http --host localhost --port 8000 ``` Optional environment variables can be set to customize behavior โ€” see [Environment Variables](#-environment-variables) below. ### Security for Remote Access For network access, enable authentication and TLS: ```shell windows-mcp serve --transport sse --host 0.0.0.0 \ --auth-key "your_secret_token" \ --ip-allowlist "203.0.113.0/24" \ --ssl-certfile cert.pem --ssl-keyfile key.pem ``` See [๐Ÿ” Security & Access Control](#-security--access-control) for all options. ### Transport Options | Transport | Command | Use Case | |---|---|---| | `stdio` (default) | `serve --transport stdio` | Direct connection from MCP clients like Claude Desktop, Cursor, etc. | | `sse` | `serve --transport sse --host HOST --port PORT` | Network-accessible via Server-Sent Events | | `streamable-http` | `serve --transport streamable-http --host HOST --port PORT` | Network-accessible via HTTP streaming (recommended for production) | --- ## ๐Ÿ” Security & Access Control ### Authentication ```shell windows-mcp serve --transport sse --host 0.0.0.0 --auth-key "your_token" ``` Requires `Authorization: Bearer your_token` header on all requests. ### IP Allowlist ```shell windows-mcp serve --auth-key "token" --ip-allowlist "203.0.113.0/24,198.51.100.5" ``` Restricts connections to specified CIDR ranges. Blocks private/loopback IPs by default. ### CORS Origins By default, **no CORS headers are emitted**. Browsers block cross-origin requests via their own Same-Origin Policy, which means arbitrary websites cannot reach the MCP control plane even if the server is on `localhost`. Host-header validation (DNS rebinding protection) is also applied automatically based on the bind address. If you need a browser-based MCP client to reach the server, opt in with an explicit origin allowlist: ```shell windows-mcp serve --cors-origins "https://my-client.example.com,https://other.example.com" ``` Only the listed origins receive `Access-Control-Allow-Origin` headers; all other cross-origin requests are rejected by the browser. The equivalent environment variable is `WINDOWS_MCP_CORS_ORIGINS`. ### Tool Selection All tools are enabled by default. Use `--tools` to whitelist specific tools, or `--exclude-tools` to block specific ones. ```shell windows-mcp serve --tools "Screenshot,Click,Snapshot" # Enable only these tools windows-mcp serve --exclude-tools "PowerShell,Registry" # Disable specific tools ``` ### TLS/HTTPS ```shell openssl req -x509 -newkey rsa:4096 -keyout key.pem -out cert.pem -days 365 -nodes windows-mcp serve --ssl-certfile cert.pem --ssl-keyfile key.pem ``` ### OAuth 2.0 + PKCE For MCP clients that use OAuth (e.g. Claude Desktop) instead of a static API key: ```shell windows-mcp serve --transport streamable-http --host 0.0.0.0 \ --ssl-certfile ~/.windows-mcp/cert.pem \ --ssl-keyfile ~/.windows-mcp/key.pem \ --oauth-client-id my-client \ --oauth-client-secret my-secret ``` **Claude Desktop config:** ```json { "mcpServers": { "windows-mcp": { "type": "http", "url": "https://:8000/mcp/", "oauth": { "clientId": "my-client", "clientSecret": "my-secret" } } } } ``` The OAuth server exposes: - `GET /.well-known/oauth-authorization-server` โ€” server metadata (RFC 8414) - `GET /oauth/authorize` โ€” Authorization Code + PKCE (`S256` required) - `POST /oauth/token` โ€” token exchange (client secret required) - `POST /oauth/register` โ€” disabled; clients must be pre-provisioned Dynamic client registration is disabled. Redirect URIs must be loopback `http(s)` only. Auth key and OAuth can coexist โ€” both are accepted as valid Bearer tokens. ### Config File (`~/.windows-mcp/config.toml`) Instead of passing flags every time, store your configuration in `~/.windows-mcp/config.toml`. CLI flags always override config file values. **Search order:** 1. `--config /path/to/config.toml` 2. `~/.windows-mcp/config.toml` **stdio** โ€” local only, no security needed: ```toml [server] transport = "stdio" ``` **SSE** โ€” network access with auth and IP restriction: ```toml [server] transport = "sse" host = "0.0.0.0" port = 8000 auth_key = "your-secret-key" [security] ip_allowlist = ["192.168.1.0/24"] ``` **Streamable HTTP** โ€” with auth, TLS, and tool exclusions: ```toml [server] transport = "streamable-http" host = "0.0.0.0" port = 8000 auth_key = "your-secret-key" ssl_certfile = "cert.pem" # resolved relative to ~/.windows-mcp/ ssl_keyfile = "key.pem" [security] ip_allowlist = ["192.168.1.0/24"] cors_origins = ["https://my-client.example.com"] # optional โ€” browser CORS opt-in oauth_client_id = "my-client" # optional โ€” enables OAuth 2.0 + PKCE oauth_client_secret = "my-secret" [tools] exclude = ["PowerShell", "Registry"] # disable specific tools ``` Place cert and key files in the same directory: ``` ~/.windows-mcp/ โ”œโ”€โ”€ config.toml โ”œโ”€โ”€ cert.pem โ””โ”€โ”€ key.pem ``` Generate a self-signed cert directly into that directory: ```shell mkdir -p ~/.windows-mcp openssl req -x509 -newkey rsa:4096 \ -keyout ~/.windows-mcp/key.pem \ -out ~/.windows-mcp/cert.pem \ -days 365 -nodes ``` ### `auth` Helper Generate an auth key and save a working config to `~/.windows-mcp/config.toml`: ```shell windows-mcp auth ``` Generate auth plus a self-signed TLS certificate: ```shell windows-mcp auth --transport streamable-http --host 0.0.0.0 --port 8000 --with-tls ``` This command writes the auth key into the config file, can generate `cert.pem` and `key.pem`, and prints an example MCP client configuration for the selected transport. ### SSRF Protection `Scrape` tool blocks: private IPs, loopback, link-local, credentials-in-URLs, non-HTTP schemes. --- ## โš™๏ธ Environment Variables All variables are optional unless noted. Set them via the `env` key in `claude_desktop_config.json` (or your MCP client's equivalent config). ### Screenshot & Snapshot | Variable | Default | Description | |---|---|---| | `WINDOWS_MCP_SCREENSHOT_SCALE` | `1.0` | Scale factor applied to screenshots before encoding. Accepts a float in the range `0.1`โ€“`1.0`. Useful on high-resolution displays (1440p, 4K) where the default produces images that exceed Claude Desktop's 1 MB tool-result limit. Set to `0.5` to halve both dimensions (quarter the file size). | | `WINDOWS_MCP_SCREENSHOT_BACKEND` | `auto` | Screenshot capture backend. Accepted values: `auto` (tries dxcam โ†’ mss โ†’ pillow in order), `dxcam`, `mss`, `pillow`. Use `mss` or `pillow` if `dxcam` is unavailable or causes issues on your GPU. | | `WINDOWS_MCP_PROFILE_SNAPSHOT` | _(disabled)_ | Set to `1`, `true`, `yes`, or `on` to emit per-stage timing logs for Screenshot/Snapshot calls. Useful for diagnosing slow captures. | | `WINDOWS_MCP_DISABLE_FLASH` | _(disabled)_ | Set to `1`, `true`, `yes`, or `on` to suppress the orange-red glowing border that briefly highlights the captured area after every screenshot. The flash is rendered on a transparent always-on-top window *after* capture so it never appears in the captured image. | ### Security | Variable | Default | Description | |---|---|---| | `WINDOWS_MCP_AUTH_KEY` | _(none)_ | Bearer token required on all HTTP requests. Alternative to `--auth-key` CLI flag. | | `WINDOWS_MCP_IP_ALLOWLIST` | _(none)_ | Comma-separated list of allowed client IPs or CIDR ranges (e.g., `203.0.113.0/24,198.51.100.5`). Alternative to `--ip-allowlist` CLI flag. | | `WINDOWS_MCP_CORS_ORIGINS` | _(none)_ | Comma-separated list of origins permitted to make cross-origin browser requests (e.g., `https://my-client.example.com`). No CORS headers are emitted when unset. Alternative to `--cors-origins` CLI flag. | | `WINDOWS_MCP_TOOLS` | _(all enabled)_ | Comma-separated explicit list of tools to enable (e.g., `Screenshot,Click,Snapshot`). Alternative to `--tools` CLI flag. | | `WINDOWS_MCP_EXCLUDE_TOOLS` | _(none)_ | Comma-separated list of tools to disable (e.g., `PowerShell,Registry`). Alternative to `--exclude-tools` CLI flag. | | `WINDOWS_MCP_SSL_CERTFILE` | _(none)_ | Path to TLS certificate file (.pem) for HTTPS. Must be provided with `WINDOWS_MCP_SSL_KEYFILE`. | | `WINDOWS_MCP_SSL_KEYFILE` | _(none)_ | Path to TLS private key file (.pem) for HTTPS. Must be provided with `WINDOWS_MCP_SSL_CERTFILE`. | | `WINDOWS_MCP_OAUTH_CLIENT_ID` | _(none)_ | OAuth client ID for HTTP transports. Must be provided with `WINDOWS_MCP_OAUTH_CLIENT_SECRET`. | | `WINDOWS_MCP_OAUTH_CLIENT_SECRET` | _(none)_ | OAuth client secret for HTTP transports. Must be provided with `WINDOWS_MCP_OAUTH_CLIENT_ID`. | | `WINDOWS_MCP_STATELESS_HTTP` | `false` | Set to `1`, `true`, `yes`, or `on` to run `streamable-http` without `Mcp-Session-Id` connection state. Useful for reconnects after restarts and for horizontally scaled deployments. | [![MseeP.ai Security Assessment Badge](https://mseep.net/pr/cursortouch-windows-mcp-badge.png)](https://mseep.ai/app/cursortouch-windows-mcp) ### Telemetry | Variable | Default | Description | |---|---|---| | `ANONYMIZED_TELEMETRY` | `true` | Set to `false` to disable anonymous usage telemetry. No personal data, tool arguments, or outputs are ever collected regardless of this setting. | | `POSTHOG_API_KEY` | Project default | Override the PostHog project write key used for anonymous telemetry. Set to an empty string to skip PostHog client initialization. | | `POSTHOG_HOST` | `https://us.i.posthog.com` | Override the PostHog host for anonymous telemetry, such as for a self-hosted PostHog deployment. | ### Debug | Variable | Default | Description | |---|---|---| | `WINDOWS_MCP_DEBUG` | `false` | Set to `1`, `true`, `yes`, or `on` to enable debug mode, which sets the log level to DEBUG for verbose output. Also available as the `--debug` CLI flag. | ### WatchDog | Variable | Default | Description | |---|---|---| | `WINDOWS_MCP_WATCHDOG` | `true` | Set to `off`, `0`, `false`, `no`, or `disabled` (case-insensitive) to disable the UIA focus watchdog that keeps the accessibility tree current. On unstable UIA environments the watchdog can degrade after long uptime (e.g. across a sleep/resume or session change); disabling it trades away automatic focus tracking for stability โ€” the accessibility tree still refreshes on-demand for tool calls. | **Example `claude_desktop_config.json`:** Local (no security): ```json { "mcpServers": { "windows-mcp": { "command": "uvx", "args": ["windows-mcp", "serve"], "env": { "WINDOWS_MCP_SCREENSHOT_SCALE": "0.5" } } } } ``` Remote (with auth + IP allowlist + TLS): ```json { "mcpServers": { "windows-mcp": { "command": "uvx", "args": ["windows-mcp", "serve", "--transport", "sse", "--host", "0.0.0.0"], "env": { "WINDOWS_MCP_AUTH_KEY": "your_token", "WINDOWS_MCP_IP_ALLOWLIST": "203.0.113.0/24", "WINDOWS_MCP_SSL_CERTFILE": "/path/to/cert.pem", "WINDOWS_MCP_SSL_KEYFILE": "/path/to/key.pem" } } } } ``` --- ## ๐Ÿ”จMCP Tools MCP Client can access the following tools to interact with Windows: - `Click`: Click on the screen at the given coordinates. - `Type`: Type text on an element (optionally clears existing text). - `Scroll`: Scroll vertically or horizontally on the window or specific regions. - `Move`: Move mouse pointer or drag (set drag=True) to coordinates. For deterministic drag, set `from_loc=[x, y]` with `drag=True` to press at an explicit start point and release at `loc` in one tool call. Optional `duration` adds bounded intermediate movement. - `Shortcut`: Press keyboard shortcuts (`Ctrl+c`, `Alt+Tab`, etc). - `Wait`: Pause for a defined duration. - `WaitFor`: Wait until text, an active window, an element, or a focused element appears by polling UI state inside one tool call. - `DisplayInventory`: Read display layout, work areas, effective DPI, and scale metadata. - `Screenshot`: Fast screenshot-first desktop capture with cursor position, active/open windows, and an image. Skips UI tree extraction for speed and should be the default first call when you mainly need visual context. Supports `display=[0]` or `display=[0,1]` using zero-based active Windows display indices. After capture, a brief orange-red glowing border is drawn inside the captured area as a visual confirmation (set `WINDOWS_MCP_DISABLE_FLASH=1` to disable). - `Snapshot`: Full desktop state capture for workflows that need interactive element ids, scrollable regions, or `use_dom=True` browser extraction. Supports `use_vision=True` for including screenshots and `display=[0]` or `display=[0,1]` using zero-based active Windows display indices. - `App`: Launch an application by Start Menu name or strictly by executable path with separated argv and optional cwd; resize, move, and switch between windows. - `PowerShell`: To execute PowerShell commands. - `FileSystem`: Read, write, copy, move, delete, list, search, and inspect files and directories. - `Scrape`: To scrape the entire webpage for information. - `MultiSelect`: Select multiple items (files, folders, checkboxes) with optional Ctrl key. Uses bulk label-to-coordinate resolution when labels are provided. - `MultiEdit`: Enter text into multiple input fields at specified coordinates. Uses bulk label-to-coordinate resolution when labels are provided. - `Clipboard`: Read or set Windows clipboard content. - `Process`: List running processes or terminate them by PID or name. - `Notification`: Send a Windows toast notification with a title and message. - `Registry`: Read, write, delete, or list Windows Registry values and keys. ## ๐Ÿค Connect with Us Stay updated and join our community: - ๐Ÿ“ข Follow us on [X](https://x.com/CursorTouch) for the latest news and updates - ๐Ÿ’ฌ Join our [Discord Community](https://discord.com/invite/Aue9Yj2VzS) ## Star History [![Star History Chart](https://api.star-history.com/svg?repos=CursorTouch/Windows-MCP&type=Date)](https://www.star-history.com/#CursorTouch/Windows-MCP&Date) ## ๐Ÿ‘ฅ Contributors Thanks to all the amazing people who have contributed to Windows-MCP! ๐ŸŽ‰ We appreciate every contribution, whether it's code, documentation, bug reports, or feature suggestions.
