WEB CASSETTE STUDIO  Build 36 Juza-II  (2026-11-12)
=====================================================

Web Cassette Studio makes cassettes on Windows: record, import, label,
dress them in cover art, and send them out as web cassettes that play
in any browser.

This one program is both editions. It starts as the free demo. A licence
key from the Ramapani shop unlocks the full version: press ENTER KEY at
the top of the studio and paste it in. Nothing else to download.

INSTALLING
----------
There is nothing to install. Put WebCassetteStudio.exe anywhere (the
Desktop, or a folder in Documents) and double-click it. It needs
Windows 10 or 11. The first start takes a few seconds while Windows
unpacks it.

To remove it, delete the exe. The studio keeps its cassettes and settings
in %APPDATA%\VirtualCassette. Deleting that folder as well removes
every cassette on the shelf, so save any worth keeping first.


"WINDOWS PROTECTED YOUR PC"
---------------------------
Ramapani is one person, and the studio is not signed with a paid
certificate, so Windows does not know its name yet. The first time it
starts, Windows may show a blue box saying "Windows protected your PC".

  1. Click "More info".
  2. Check that the app is WebCassetteStudio.exe.
  3. Click "Run anyway".

Windows remembers the choice for this copy.

SMART APP CONTROL: some Windows 11 computers have Smart App Control
switched on (Windows Security > App & browser control > Smart App
Control). It blocks every unsigned program, with no "Run anyway"
button, so the studio will not start there. The only way round it is to
switch Smart App Control off, which lowers that computer's protection.
That choice belongs to the computer's owner. The web cassette recorder
at https://ramapani.com/cassette/recorder.php needs no download and works on any computer.


CHECKING THE DOWNLOAD
---------------------
To be sure this is the studio exactly as Ramapani built it, compare its
SHA-256 fingerprint with the one on the download page. In PowerShell:

  Get-FileHash .\WebCassetteStudio.exe

The fingerprint of this build is:

  7E0462E978EB964791D29A530420378AAD06931E20EBCD809EBB873CD1FD6CD4


WHAT THE STUDIO SENDS
---------------------
The studio contacts ramapani.com for two things only. When a licence key
is entered, and now and then afterwards, it sends the key and this
computer's Windows machine ID, so one key unlocks a limited number of
computers. It also fetches news for its MESSAGES tab. Recordings never leave the computer unless
the maker exports, publishes or sends them.
