  • Troubleshoot. Right-click a game that won't start and pick Troubleshoot, or open it from the crash window. It checks its files, what it needs on your PC, your copy of the game and more, with a fix button next to anything wrong. Send to the Developer puts what it found straight into a report.
  • Shorter right-click menu. Everything's still there, grouped under Manage, Customize, Add To, Files and On GitHub.
  • Add to Start Menu / App Menu. Put any game in the Windows Start menu or your Linux app menu.
  • Fits small screens. The launcher now works down to 640×480, so CRTs and small displays are fine.
  • Choose your art. Add From GitHub and Edit Game Info now have Choose Art: every cover and background SteamGridDB has for the game, side by side. Click the ones you like.
  • Better at knowing the game. Add From GitHub now finds the game's name in more kinds of repo titles and descriptions ("… PC Port", "a recomp of …"), and checks it with SteamGridDB when you have a key.
  • Plugins can add mods. A plugin can put a mod or texture pack straight into a game's folder, after asking you. Plugin downloads show in Downloads with their progress, and you pick where they go.
  • Safer plugins. When a site sends a plugin's request or download somewhere else, the launcher follows it only to sites that plugin listed, and asks you first about any you haven't allowed yet.
  • Linux: links open your browser. Links now open in your default browser, Flatpak browsers too.
  • Add to Steam on Steam Deck and Big Picture. When Steam opened RecompLauncher, or you're in Gaming Mode, the launcher tells you what to do instead of freezing or doing nothing.
  • Linux builds start right. A game whose setup names a Windows start file now starts with its Linux build's own script, and Windows scripts run through Proton.
  • Found games you can play. When the launcher finds your game files, it only counts recomps that run on your PC.

Keep the logs coming from the crash window and Settings → Beta. Every one helps.
