🕹️ OMate PC beta testing begins

Hello everyone, OMate Chat finally supports the desktop version. In fact, OMate is developed based on cross-platform technology, which theoretically supports the desktop version. However, since some components we use do not support the desktop version, it has not been released until now.

Currently, by replacing compatible components/disabling functions, OMate can now run on computers. There may be some minor issues, and we welcome your feedback in this post, which we will address promptly.

:warning: After restoring a backup, you need to exit the application and re-enter.


Windows

win11+, 64-bit

https://download.omate.org/omate-pro-win-1.8.1-b206.zip

After extracting, run omate.exe, and the data will be stored in the system application data directory.

  • b205: Fixed database operation issues
  • b206: Optimized audio playback compatibility on Windows

Mac

macOS 13+

https://download.omate.org/omate-pro-1.9.0-mac.zip

  • b207: Upgraded database to use fts5

Linux

After testing, due to poor support of many components on Linux, there are many detailed issues, and official support is not provided. However, a test version on Ubuntu is available:

https://download.omate.org/omate-pro-1.9.0-linux-x86_64.AppImage

Note: You may need to install system-level dependencies first: sudo apt install libmpv1

It can read the backup on the mobile device, but clicking “Restore Backup” results in a failure.

This issue was fixed in b205, please download the latest version and try it.

It still doesn’t work. After this recovery failure, there will be a list of roles and a list of knowledge bases. Roles cannot initiate conversations, and knowledge base files cannot be edited or deleted.

After restoring the backup and seeing a success message, try exiting the app and re-entering it.

Teacher, where is the data stored on the computer? I found that the newly downloaded version has data even without restoring the backup, so it might need to be cleared.

I found the path, it’s here.
C:\Users\admin\AppData\Roaming\org.omate\omate

However, even after clearing it, it still prompts a restore failure when trying to restore.

We tested on Windows 11 and couldn’t reproduce the issue you’re experiencing, so we are currently unable to identify the cause.

Indeed, both of my computers are running Windows 10. I’ll try again later on a Windows 11 computer. Thank you for your effort.

WINDOWS 11 failed to restore the backup file, and there was an error when creating a conversation. Could it be because the directory C:\Users\admin\AppData\Roaming\org.omate\omate does not have write permissions (because the C drive is the system drive)?

How do I upload attachments to share on livepage? I want to upload a JSON file that shows new users are prohibited from uploading attachments.

There is no such thing as no permission, many games also save files on the C drive.

My laptop with Windows 11 can’t open the desktop, and I don’t know why :joy:

ScreenShot_2025-12-03_163314_273This prompt appears when returning to the homepage on a MAC端.

I have the exact same issue with my Win10, showing backup failure. Although returning to the main page shows everything is there, none of it is operable.

You can ignore this error message for now. We will hide it in a future version.

Is it using version b206? There were some issues with b204, which were fixed in 206.

It’s version 206, Windows 11 Home Edition. Thank you, Teacher Fangtang, for your reply amidst your busy schedule.

I have switched to a test machine, the issue has been identified and is being fixed.

:heart::heart::heart::heart::heart::heart: Thank you again, Teacher Fangtang :heart::heart::heart::heart::heart::heart:

@YeZip @Lyra Upgraded the Windows version, you can try again now

@Hydra The Mac version has also been upgraded, the previous errors should be resolved.

The new version is now working properly, :heart::heart::heart: thank you, Teacher Fangtang! :heart::heart::heart:
