GOOD TO KNOW

A few things worth knowing.

Do I need to install anything or sign up?

No account or installer needed. Download the Windows ZIP, extract it, and run PixelPin.exe. The .NET runtime is already included.

Why does Windows warn me on the first run?

The current download is not code-signed, so Windows reputation-based protection may warn when you run it for the first time. Check that your download comes from our official GitHub release and matches the supplied SHA-256 checksum. How Windows app protection works

Will it match what I see on an HDR display?

Where supported, Pixel Pin uses high-precision scRGB capture with Windows SDR white-level correction. The output is sRGB, so it cannot reproduce the full brightness or gamut of HDR. The app labels compatibility capture when DirectX is unavailable.

Can I use the CMYK values directly for printing?

CMYK is a reference conversion from screen RGB, without an ICC print profile. Check your final print colors in the profile and output setup you’ll actually use. HSV and CMYK notation are not standard CSS color syntax.

Where are my settings and recent colors stored?

Locally, in your PC’s %LOCALAPPDATA%\PixelPin folder. Screen images and color history are not sent to a server. This website does not use analytics tracking.

Your next great color,
a little easier to find.
