WowOpenBox (WOB) is optimized to be the safest and best solution for Blizzard’s World of Warcraft but can also be use to manage multiple windows of other applications or games).

If your game or application allows Broadcasting, switch over to OMB (OpenMultiboxing).

Main features

• Window Layout wizard and manual tweaking; get your game windows exactly how you want them to be to play.
• Instant swapping of windows; with keyboard hotkeys for fast switching to the next or any specific window.
• Many additional options to switch which window your keys are going to:
  • Focus follow mouse: turns on/off the Windows™ accessibility feature so you just hover a window to make it receive keys
  • Focus next/previous/specific windows with hotkeys.
  • Optional Round robin: after you press configurable keys, focus switches to the next window automatically.
• Free, OpenSource and the Safest option available: WOB respects Blizzard’s new directive to not do any software input broadcasting. Multiboxing legitimately with peace of mind.
• Online help, menus and tooltips on most UI element to help discovering features.

Installation

WowOpenBox is optimized for Microsoft Windows 10.

Since release 2.2, WOB/OMB is entirely built automatically from source by GitHub actions CI (continuous integration).

Simply download the all in one zip (OpenMultiBoxing-vX.Y.Z.zip, not the source zip) from the latest release at: https://github.com/WowOpenBox/WowOpenBox/releases and extract it all to your desktop for instance.

If you want to use the optional Round Robin feature, just launch the OpenMultiBoxing_RR exe and run that to get RR. If you don’t want RR start OpenMultiBoxing (with the version) instead (if you want RR you need both binaries, the RR is just a small wrapper enabling RR in the main exe).

Run either and enjoy!
