I just received a UAC prompt out of nowhere to allow "Installer.exe" from an unknown publisher to run. Not knowing what it was, and being rather concerned at this point, I clicked "No". Later I realized it was SoundSwitch trying to update itself.
So I opened SoundSwitch, and let it do its update. The UAC prompt came up again, I clicked Yes, it asked to install some redistributable, and then promptly restarted my computer without warning or approval. Not cool!
I suggest that you notify the user that there is an update, and allow them to act upon that, instead of starting an installer out of nowhere, and also please add a notification/question if the computer should be restarted.
Otherwise, a super useful program :)

About the UAC I was putting before this information in the release to install my certificate (the one I used to Sign SoundSwitch and its installer)
Certificate installation
To resolve some security issue (see #6), the installer/uninstaller and application are now signed with my own certificate. You need to install it by downloading it from here: https://www.aaflalo.me/certs/AaflaloMeCertificates.zip
Unpack the zip
Run as admin the InstallCA.bat
Follow the indication
Now windows will recognize SoundSwitch as a valid publisher
