Note from the developers

While we usually publish Early Access versions on github two weeks after their initial release, we've decided to put version 0.20.4.1, based on 0.20.4.0, online just one week after its release, in order to address a rare but very annoying problem: the soft-brick when uninstalling HidHide.

This soft-brick problem was caused by the HidHide library on which Handheld Companion relies to hide the physical controller. It was possible that during uninstallation, a race-condition would occur with the watchdog, responsible for ensuring the smooth operation of HidHide and the uninstaller.

Thanks to the combined efforts of the community and HidHide developer Nefarius, we were finally able to isolate the problem and a new version of HidHide was immediately released.

As you may have guessed, version 0.20.4.1 is nothing other than 0.20.4.0, with the new critical update of HidHide to version 1.4.202.
