[RELEASE] PC Controller - Send and receive commands to/from your windows PC (EventGhost)

This is more of an EventGhost problem...I think.

I have downloaded and extracted the HubitatPlugin1.0.3.zip

It is extracted to the subfolder C:\Program Files (x86)\EventGhost\plugins\Hubitat

However, when I try to add the plugin to EventGhost I just get the spinning cursor of death and the app locks.

Any ideas?
I'm sure I'm just doing something simple wrong.

Do you see something like this?

I'm missing a couple...are they created, or should they be in the plugin zip?

Hmmmm... Not sure... Will probably need to take a look in another 18+ hours.... I certainly didn't do anything special in setting up the plugin folder...

Appreciate it! Thanks!

Update. Uninstalled EventGhost and reinstalled. It now at least lets me load and configure the HE plugin.

It still fails to actually run though. I'm trying to get some more cycles to run back through other posts that show...

You may need to run EG as an admin user or with admin privileges....

Thanks to all. The cure was simple once I saw the post above.

"download version 0.5.0-rc6,"

It is a bit tough to find ...but that fixed everything...now on to the fun part :wink:

I marked the post with the softpedia link as the solution so it will show up in the first post.

General FYI,

I replaced a (mirrored) data drive today and saw errors connecting in the log for the child device. Spamming the log and I think causing general HE issues.

I had to open up EG and re-add the HE plugin. Guess it lost track/attributes.

Odd because although I didn't "clone" the drive, I used robocopy with all the "sticky" attributes.

It appears EventGhost is back from the dead. I'm seeing there's a new release available when I open the app.

Has anyone tried the newer version? I'm hesitant, just because I could see it breaking the Hubitat plugin.

Works fine here! All my Hubitat automations are coming through, getting logged and performing as expected.

P.S. Don't wanna step on anybody's feet, but might adopt the PC Controller app codebase, since I see no repo activity. I've tried in vain over the past year to contact @gilshallem about this but will keep trying.
