WinRemoteControl

This app has the main goal to be able to execute some actions on a Windows computer, when subscribed to a MQTT server.

In this example, I'm using Home Assistant automations, Zigbee and a IKEA remote to trigger messages via MQTT.

Current actions include turn the system volume up and down, and toggling Microsoft Teams self-mute.

You will need an MQTT server to connect to. If you have one, you can use anything to publish to a certain MQTT topic.

How to install

An Inno Setup-generated installer is available from the Releases section.

Alternatively, you can download and run the code using Visual Studio or equivalent.

Usage

Settings are stored on a JSON file in the same folder of the executable, edit it with your configuration before starting the server.
