About Win Utilities

Win Utilities is an extension of the Estape Tools plugin, designed to integrate seamlessly with Unreal Engine workflows. This plugin focuses specifically on giving developers access to native Windows functionalities that are not available through the standard engine tools.

Whether you are an experienced developer working on complex desktop systems or a newcomer exploring platform-specific development, Win Utilities provides a convenient and modular way to extend your project’s capabilities without unnecessary overhead.

This plugin is distributed separately to ensure flexibility. It can be enabled or disabled independently from the main Estape Tools plugin, allowing for cleaner project management. This approach is especially important in cross-platform environments — by keeping Windows-specific features isolated, your project remains compatible with other operating systems such as macOS or Linux.

Using a modular structure also helps reduce build complexity, avoid unwanted dependencies on unsupported platforms, and maintain code clarity. Win Utilities is ideal for scenarios where your project requires deeper interaction with the Windows operating system, such as advanced file management, process control, registry access, or system automation.

Whether you're building internal tools, debugging systems, or user-facing applications, Win Utilities is designed to be a helpful, focused, and optional addition to your development toolkit.
