@alin23 your program does a toggle, i was wondering if it was possible to a force on, so if it was on, it would be left alone, but if it was off, it would be turned on.. is that possible?
Yes, I just added that a few minutes ago. You can download the updated binary.
Hi, sorry, the ToggleHDR binary still does a toggle action. Not force on.
Most likely you haven't updated the binary. See below how it works:

@skempken it works perfectly, do you mind sharing the code so that I can just save my UUID into the program and compile it?
