Help Finding Files and Checking Audio Settings With DustyWire

You sit down to do something simple on your computer. Then the sound comes out of the wrong speaker, the file you need seems to disappear, or a website asks you to work through another confusing form. A five-minute job starts taking over your afternoon.

DustyWire helps with everyday computer frustrations: describe what you want, approve the plan it automatically presents, and let it work on your screen.

Start with the problem you can actually see

You do not need to know a setting's technical name to explain what is wrong. “My headphones are connected, but the sound is still coming from the laptop” is a useful starting point. So is “I downloaded a document and cannot find it.”

Dusty reads the screen and uses the mouse and keyboard to work across apps and websites. Give it a specific outcome. For example:

“Set my connected headphones as the audio output.”

A clear request gives Dusty a concrete job to get started on.

Let Dusty investigate a slow app

A computer that feels slow can have different causes. Dusty can investigate the apps and settings on your screen and work through the next steps.

Describe which app feels slow and what happens when you use it. Dusty can use that context to investigate.

“Investigate why this app seems slow and help get it running smoothly.”

Take the repeated clicking out of ordinary jobs

Not every computer problem is a broken setting. Sometimes the frustration is doing the same tedious steps again: locating a receipt, transferring details into a form, or organizing a folder.

Try a request such as “Find the invoice PDFs in this folder.” For a form, give Dusty the information to use and ask it to fill in the fields.

Identify the app, folder, or website and describe the result you want. Dusty automatically presents a plan for approval before starting.

You can step in while Dusty works

Dusty automatically shows you a plan for approval before it starts. It uses your mouse and keyboard, so you take turns: move the mouse or press a key and it waits. After you let go for a few seconds, it can carry on. Use Stop when you want it to stay paused.

When a sign-in or verification code is needed, Dusty pauses so you can enter it yourself.

Try one manageable task first

DustyWire runs on Windows and macOS. Pick the computer task you want done and describe it in your own words.
