I built a one-click switch between my work and sim-racing PC setups

Описание и применение

Sherpa Manager упрощает переключение между рабочим и гоночным режимами на одном ПК, автоматически меняя расположение мониторов, аудио‑устройства и запускаемые приложения.

Задача

Switching a single Windows PC between work and sim-racing setups requires manual reconfiguration of displays, audio devices, and companion apps, leading to a tedious checklist.

Результат

Sherpa Manager reduces the setup time for switching between work and racing modes to a single click, eliminating manual configuration steps and minimizing errors.

Рабочий процесс

• Arrange displays for Work profile and capture layout
• Set playback/mic devices and add desired apps
• Repeat for Racing profile, test display change, keep if correct
• Enable Close on switch to force-close specified apps when activating a profile
• Activate profile via app, shortcut, or tray

Доказательства

Sherpa Manager asks you to arrange your displays first and capture that known-good state. When you test a layout, you have 10 seconds to keep it; otherwise the display change reverts.

Источник

Sherpa Manager runs on 64-bit Windows 10/11. The release has an installer and a portable build that share profiles.
