Simple DNSCrypt at a glance
Simple DNSCrypt is a free, open-source graphical front-end for dnscrypt-proxy on Windows. System administrators use it to encrypt DNS resolution on client machines or servers, centrally manage resolver settings, and reduce exposure to DNS spoofing and on-path DNS manipulation. It targets technically inclined users and small to medium environments that want straightforward control over DNSCrypt or DoH/DoT resolvers without relying on the command line.
Releases are published irregularly as signed MSI packages for x86 and x64 through the project's GitHub repository. Being a community-maintained project, gaps between releases can vary, and development closely follows changes in the underlying dnscrypt-proxy engine.
When updating, administrators should verify compatibility with the bundled or configured dnscrypt-proxy version, confirm the installer's code signature is valid, and ensure existing configuration files such as resolver lists and rules carry over correctly. Because the tool modifies core network configuration, testing in a non-production environment before wider rollout is advisable.
