Desktop app

UnMsg's desktop window is a calm, single‑column flow. There is always exactly one primary action — Convert → Cancel → Open output — so the next step is never in doubt.

The window

• Drop zone. The empty‑state invitation. Drag .msg files or folders in, or click to browse.
• File list. Each row shows the message's identity — once converted, its output bundle name (date and subject) — with a coloured status dot and small chips for the formats produced.
• Options bar. A one‑line summary that expands only when you want it. Sensible defaults mean most people never open it.
• Action. Convert turns into Cancel while running, and Open output when done. A slim progress strip under the header carries the "working" feedback.
• Log pane. Collapsed by default. Expand it if you want to see what happened in detail. Emails and paths are scrubbed before they appear here.

Themes

Light, dark, and a high‑contrast theme — pick from Settings → General, or let the app follow the OS. The brand colour is a calm green; the focus ring is a distinct blue so keyboard users can always see where they are.

Right‑click on a .msg

The Windows installer adds Convert with UnMsg to the right‑click menu of .msg files and a Send To → UnMsg target. Both open the app with those files queued and ready to convert.

What the app never does

• No telemetry. No analytics. No error‑reporting SDK.
• No accounts, no sign‑in, no cloud.
• No background uploads — even crash reports stay on disk and are never sent.
• No fake urgency or buried "off" switches. The privacy promise is in plain words on the Help / About screen.
