# rustdesk-customization
Some tips for customizing RustDesk for Windows (other platforms might require additional changes)
# Embedding Sciter.dll
If you want a single portable executable file, you can either statically link Sciter, or embed the DLL. Statically linking it requires you [license Sciter](https://sciter.com/prices/), which costs money--so I went with embedding the dll.
1. Copy sciter.dll to your project root directory (where Cargo.toml resides)
2. Add the following lines into ```fn main()``` in src/main.rs
```
let bytes = include_bytes!("..\\sciter.dll");
fs::write("sciter.dll", bytes.as_slice());
```
Note: Do not remove the "..\\" as main.rs resides in /rustdesk/src, and will not be able to find the file otherwise. Alternatively you can put ```sciter.dll``` in /rustdesk/src
The function should now look like so:
```
#[cfg(not(any(target_os = "android", target_os = "ios", feature = "cli")))]
fn main() {
//BEGIN CHANGES
//Embed the Sciter.dll file into the exe, and then write it to disk when application starts
println!("================ LOADING SCITER DLLL ==================");
let bytes = include_bytes!("..\\sciter.dll"); //since main.rs is in rustdesk/src, we need to go up one level (to rustdesk)
fs::write("sciter.dll", bytes.as_slice());
//END CHANGES
if !common::global_init() {
return;
}
//println!("Key: {}", hbb_common::config::RS_PUB_KEY);
//println!("Password: {}", hbb_common::config::RS_PASS);
//println!("Salt: {}", hbb_common::config::RS_SALT);
if let Some(args) = crate::core_main::core_main().as_mut() {
ui::start(args);
}
common::global_clean();
}
```
# Hide Console Window
You can toggle the console terminal window by uncommenting line 3 in ```src/main.rs```
```#![windows_subsystem = "windows"]```
Comment it out to show console window, uncomment it to hide.
