Settings Editor

The full desktop window, opened with Ctrl+Alt+Shift+S or from the tray. Nine categories covering every key the INI holds.

It is navigable with a controller as well as a mouse — the hint line under the title says how: D-pad navigates, A activates, LT/RT switch category, the right stick drives the pointer, RB is a pointer action, and Y saves.

Save & Apply writes the INI through a staged replacement — the batch either lands whole or leaves the file untouched, so a half-written settings file is never left behind. Reload INI discards unsaved edits and re-reads from disk.

General

Core shell behaviour and which modules appear in the Quick Menu, plus the accent colour and the two controller hold times.

Startup Programs

Up to twenty standard-user programs launched with the shell, with a delay, a gap between launches, and a window mode.

Mouse mode, deadzone, speed and scrolling, cursor hiding, and the controller backend.

Settings editor Focus and Windows page

RTSS paths, shortcuts, DLL integration and the frame-cap behaviour.

Which launcher processes get closed after a game exits, which are protected, and how gracefully.
