      <description>&lt;p&gt;Hey everyone,&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;I've been working on File Converter Pro, a free desktop app for Windows that handles document, image, audio, and video conversions, all locally, without sending your files anywhere.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Why I built it&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br&gt;
I was tired of either uploading sensitive files to online converters or juggling 4 different tools for different formats. I wanted one clean tool that works on a clean machine with zero setup.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;What it does&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Converts documents (PDF, DOCX, XLSX, PPTX, HTML, EPUB...), images (JPEG, PNG, WebP, HEIC, ICO...), audio (MP3, WAV, FLAC...) and video (MP4, MKV, MOV...)&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Batch conversions&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Multi-engine fallback if one engine fails, it tries the next automatically&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;100% offline, no telemetry, no account&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Some extras I'm proud of&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Auto dark/light mode from the Windows registry&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Statistics dashboard with animated charts&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Achievements &amp;amp; rank system backed by SQLite&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Project files (.fcproj) to save and reopen conversion setups&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Drag files directly onto the .exe to pre-load them&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Encrypted settings storage&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;p&gt;It's open source and completely free.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Here is where you can find it or if you want to learn more:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;a href="https://hyacinthe-primus.itch.io/file-converter-pro" rel="noopener noreferrer"&gt;Itch.io&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;I will be glad to hear your thoughts on it.&lt;br&gt;
Thanks&lt;/p&gt;
