MetroOsd

MetroOsd is a lightweight, metro-style on-screen display (OSD) for Windows 10.

It hooks specifical events globally and shows a indicator, positioned relative to Windows' native OSD.

Requirements

• Windows 10
• .NET 8 Desktop Runtime — if you prefer non-SelfContained builds

Usage

Download from the Releases:

• MetroOsd-<tag>-selfcontained.zip — standalone osd.exe, no runtime needed.
• MetroOsd-<tag>-framework-dependent.zip — smaller osd.exe, requires the .NET 8 Desktop Runtime.

Extract the archive and run osd.exe, run install.ps1 if you want MetroOsd autostarted when startup.
