The current public release is 6.1.0 (August 18, 2026). WinGet previously shipped 2.1.3 (March 2026). This page lists user-visible changes in 6.1.0 compared with that build.

6.1.0 still includes batch conversion, recursive folder scanning, multi-format output in one run, watch folders, Explorer right-click Quick Convert, HTML and Markdown export, and content-based .wpd detection. Looking for what we might build next? See the product roadmap.
