- Visit the official releases page to find the latest version.
- Look for the section labeled Assets.
- Click the file ending in .exe to start your download.
- Open the folder where your computer saves downloads.
- Double-click the downloaded file to run the installer.
- Follow the prompts on your screen to complete the setup process.
Once you install the program, find the icon on your desktop or in your start menu. Click the icon to launch the application. The software opens directly to the main dashboard. This screen shows all your active projects and pending tasks in one view. You do not need to configure settings during your first run. The software uses sensible defaults so you can begin work immediately.
Ensure your computer has the following to get the best performance:
- Operating System: Windows 10 or Windows 11.
- Memory: 4 gigabytes of RAM.
- Storage: 200 megabytes of free space.
- Internet: An active connection for initial setup and updates.
If your computer meets these standards, the program runs smoothly. Close other heavy programs if you notice sluggish behavior during high-data tasks.
The interface features three main tabs. Each tab serves a specific purpose for your business.
The dashboard acts as your home base. It displays a list of your most recent entries. You see project status indicators here. Green icons mean a task proceeds as planned, while yellow icons suggest a need for review.
You create, edit, and delete tasks in this section. Use the plus button to add a new item. Enter a title, a due date, and relevant notes. Click the save icon to store your progress. You mark items as done by checking the box next to the task name. The system moves finished tasks to the archive folder automatically.
Store client names, phone numbers, and email addresses here. The search bar at the top allows you to find contacts by name. You import data from standard text files if you already have a contact list.
The software stores your data in a local folder on your computer. This keeps your business information secure. You control the files at all times.
To create a backup:
- Open the File menu.
- Select Export Data.
- Choose a destination folder on your computer.
- Click Save.
Regular backups protect your work against hardware failure or accidental loss. Save these files to an external drive or a secure cloud folder for extra safety.
The software only connects to the internet to check for updates. All your data remains on your local hard drive.
The program design prevents opening multiple instances at once to avoid data conflicts. This ensures your project changes save correctly.
The software includes an auto-save feature. It saves your work every time you add or update an entry. If the program closes, re-open it to recover your most recent changes.
Open your Windows Settings and choose Apps. Locate OPC in the list. Click Uninstall and follow the prompts. The uninstaller removes the shortcut and the program files. Note that your data files remain in the installation folder unless you delete them manually.
If you experience issues, review this guide again to ensure you followed each step. If a problem persists, look at the Issues tab on the GitHub repository page. Other users might have reported the same issue. Check if a solution exists there. If you do not find an answer, create a new issue report. Describe the steps you took before the issue occurred and provide a screenshot if possible. Provide enough detail so others can reproduce the behavior. This helps improve the software for everyone.
This project remains free to use for all solo business owners. Your feedback drives future improvements. Use the tools as you see fit to organize your operations and keep your business productive. Keep your software updated to access the latest features and security improvements. Check the releases page once a month for new versions.
