ClawTweaks – FAQ

Frequently asked questions about ClawTweaks. Each entry can be expanded.

What are the features of ClawTweaks?

ClawTweaks is an Xbox Game Bar widget (plus a background helper) for the MSI Claw. Here's an overview of the features by type:

Tiles (Quick-Settings tiles)

Quick-access tiles right inside the widget – the heart of the day-to-day controls.

Customizing tiles & hotkeys

Freely arrange tiles, show/hide them and assign hotkeys.

Themes / design

Several themes to choose from – including the new default look "Next Gen Claw".

Built-in actions for tiles & shortcuts

A large set of built-in actions for tiles and shortcuts (OS, performance, launcher, program, website and media actions).

Your own .exe files, scripts & URLs

Add your own programs (.exe), PowerShell scripts (.ps1) and website URLs, and bind them to tiles, controller combos or the MSI button.

Front OEM button: single- & double-click actions

Assign separate actions for single- and double-click to the left MSI / front OEM button.

Controller button remapping

Freely remap the virtual controller's buttons (keyboard, mouse, gamepad action).

Gyro – global or per game

Configure gyro control globally or individually per game.

Performance profiles

Set TDP / performance profiles and switch between them quickly.

Per-game profiles

Dedicated per-game profiles that apply automatically when the game starts.

Fan control

Control fan curves and presets right from the widget.

Intel color & display settings

Adjust color and display settings via the Intel GPU.

Lossless Scaling integration

Lossless Scaling integration for higher frame rates.

Overlay (horizontal)

A configurable performance overlay – compact or detailed.

How to enable Virtual Controller & Mouse

To use ClawTweaks' controller and mouse emulation on the MSI Claw, first hand control over from MSI's software, then enable the virtual controller and mouse.

1. Deactivate Center M

In the Main tab, disable MSI Center M so it stops managing the device and ClawTweaks can take over. This also unlocks all features.

2. Enable Virtual Controller & Mouse

In the Controls tab, turn on Virtual Controller & Mouse. Here you can also define the front MSI button actions (single or double click).

How To Create Per Game Settings

Per-game settings apply automatically when the game is running. There are two independent kinds you can enable per game:

Per-game button remappings & gyro

Enable the per-game controller profile to give a game its own button remappings and gyro configuration.

Per-game performance & display settings

Enable the per-game performance profile for game-specific TDP / performance and Intel display settings.
