Windows 10 - 32bit support will be discontinued
- Details
When we started the Magic Utilities more than a decade ago our goal was to support any Windows version from Windows 7 upwards and we did for many years.
Things have changed. We already stopped new features for Windows 7+8.x. With Windows 11, Microsoft dropped 32bit support all together.
We did some statistical analysis and found that less than 0.1% of our sales are for any Windows 32bit version, that's less than 1 in 1000.
As building, testing and signing 32bit drivers is a time consuming task, we decided to discontinue Windows 10 - 32bit support sometime mid 2022.
This means older Windows 10 - 32bit versions will still be available for download and installation, but they do not get any further updates.
Version 3.1.2.6

Version 3.1.2.4
- Details

Also adds a new feature to the large Magic Keyboards with Numeric Keypad.

Wow, it's already almost Christmas again. Another year with unexpected turns. The Magic Utilities 3 have now been released for more than 3 years.
In 2021 we had a long beta phase, partly because Windows 11 was causing silent random crashes. This has now been fix and version 3.1.2.3 the the latest stable release with lots of new features, to name a few:
- Battery saver
