Our goal for this Beta is to bring the core Parashoot experience to Windows. While most features are fully operational, there are a few specific workflows currently in development.

✅ What is working:

  • Core Erasure: Full support for "Fake Formatting" and safe verification.

  • Prep Mode: Fully functional for quick card preparation.

  • Batch Erase Hotkey: Keyboard shortcuts for batch operations are active.

  • Stream Deck Integration: The plugin is fully functional on Windows.

  • Automatic Shuttle Drives: Parashoot will automatically detect and add shuttle drives as they are mounted.

  • Background Operations: Verify and erase tasks run smoothly in the background.

⚠️ Known Limitations (Not yet supported):

  • Sony Venice: Specific support for Sony Venice (AXS) media is not yet available in this build.

  • Codex HDE: High Density Encoding support is currently disabled.
