Install guide Changelog
Signed installer

Verify Rohsam before installing.

The Windows installer is code-signed by the Rohsam publisher identity. Brand-new signed builds may still show SmartScreen reputation prompts until those files gain download history; verify the publisher as Rohsam Inc. or RohsamInc before continuing.

Publisher verification
Local only

No telemetry from the app.

The desktop app talks to MSFS or X-Plane over local loopback and to the joystick over USB. It does not send flight data, settings, or hardware details over the internet.

Support

Send evidence when something breaks.

Diagnostics can export a local support bundle with logs, settings, Support checks output, and system facts. You decide whether to attach it to a feedback report.
