Before you install.
Did the opening animation install anything?
No. It is a scroll-controlled illustration. To install RGLauncher, use the Downloads page.
How do I activate my license?
Open RGLauncher, go to Settings → License, paste your license key and activate it. A Stripe receipt or order reference is not an activation key.
Do I need Wallpaper Engine?
No. RGLauncher can use your desktop wallpaper. Wallpaper Engine is optional and sold separately.
Are games included?
No. RGLauncher displays games installed through supported clients. You still need to own and install the games you want to launch.
Is the current download a stable release?
Current public builds are prereleases. Review the release notes before installing. Windows may show an unknown publisher warning because the app does not currently have an Authenticode signing certificate.
