Version 1.0 - nrsharan/HushAlexa GitHub Wiki

Install Directions

  1. You just need to download the HushAlexa.jar file and double click it, to start the program. You will not see anything, but it is running in the background.
  2. To stop the program, go to the Task Manager and look for the process Java(TM) Platform SE binary and end it. I know it's not cool, but I plan on making it better by being able to minimize it to the task bar.
  3. You can copy the HushAlex.jar file to your Startup folder, so it runs automatically when you boot up. To do this, press Windows+R then type shell:startup, and copy the jar file to this location, and you're set.

The program runs really light, takes up about 25mb of RAM and almost no processor time. It does not interfere with any media playing already. The sound file played is truly empty, so not even a faint sound can be heard.

Enjoy, and stay safe!
