Clean Launcher User Guide

✨ Getting Started

When you first open Clean Launcheryou’ll be asked whether you want to set up an Auto Mods folder and allow Clean Launcher to start with your computer.

Auto Mods creates a new folder inside /Mods. Anything you place in this folder — filesfoldersor zip archives — will be automatically extracted and sorted. Tray and Save files are moved to their correct locationswhile other mod files are extracted and kept neatly organized inside Auto Modsready to be tested in gameor moved to a different folder.

If you choose to start Clean Launcher with WindowsAuto Mods will always be active in the background. If you choose not toyou’ll need to open Clean Launcher for the Auto Mods folder to be monitored and sorted.

It’s perfect for download sprees. You can right-click the folderpin it to Quick Access, and drag your downloads straight into it—no manual extraction required.

You can enable or disable Auto Mods at any time via Settings ➡️ Toggle Auto Modsor by right-clicking Clean Launcher in the system tray. If the folder is deleted while still enabledit will be recreated automatically.
