Getting started
Where do I sign in?
Start in the desktop app. Your account, device activation and secure session are handled directly from ResoTweak. You can also sign in on the web to manage your account.
What should I do before the first run?
Install pending Windows and graphics-driver updates, restart once, and close the game you plan to configure. Then follow the first-run guide.
Which Windows versions are supported?
ResoTweak is built for Windows 10 and 11. Some actions are only offered on specific versions or hardware.
Optimizer and restore
Does ResoTweak apply everything automatically?
No. Optimizer options are staged first. You can review the selected changes before applying them.
Why is an optimizer option unavailable?
Some settings are only relevant on specific versions of Windows or hardware. ResoTweak hides unsupported actions instead of pretending they work.
What do Applied, Skipped and Need review mean?
Applied: the engine changed the item and verified its final state. Skipped: it was already correct or does not apply to this PC. Need review: the final state could not be verified, so open the activity log before retrying.
How do I restore an applied setting?
Open Restore last, check the backup time and included settings, then restore the captured group. Deleted cache files cannot be recreated, and external launcher or driver settings stay outside the Windows backup unless the action says otherwise.
Visuals and Resolution
Why is the display preview only an approximation?
The preview uses an image to explain your calibration. Your real display, game, driver settings and HDR state can still affect the final result.
My desktop resolution did not come back after the game.
Fully close the game and its crash reporter or launcher child process. ResoTweak restores the desktop mode only after the detected game process has exited.
Why is my 4:3 profile not stretched?
Enable full-screen scaling in your graphics driver as well. ResoTweak can request the display mode, but the driver controls the scaling method.
Uninstaller
What does verified software mean?
A verified entry has a trusted publisher signature or a clear Windows uninstall record. Unverified does not automatically mean unsafe; it means the item needs more care before removal.
Can I remove UWP apps and browser extensions?
Yes. Uninstaller separates desktop software, packaged Windows apps and browser extensions so each removal uses the correct Windows or browser action.
