Self-hosting is a growing trend among technical people who want to have control over their data, thus maintaining their privacy. This often involves deep knowledge of software systems. Perfect memory allows users to self-host while simplifying the whole process into a single click! You don't need to read documentation, and carefully follow setup guides. It's just that single click.

How to deploy the Perfect Memory search engine on your device

There are a few ways to do it. The recommended way is to go through the Microsoft Store which maintains validation and security standards of the applications. Simply visit the store page and click Install.

You'll see a download progress followed by deployment progress and soon after you'll be welcomed by a Quick Start screen.

Perfect Memory Installation

After the Setup Perfect memory will run in your tray bar (That's the icons in the bottom right of your screen. Next to the time and date). Indexing your screen on a background. And when you inevitably get to the situation where you can't find that conversation message or that presentation slide. You can click the application and search for any text that appeared on your screen.
