Optional by design.

The Bare Metal launcher manages installs, updates, and your goodies in one place. It runs no background service and adds no DRM - every game you own still installs and runs standalone, forever, whether the launcher is present or not.

What it does

• Chunked, resumable downloads with SHA-256 verification.
• One-click updates, with every file verified before it is installed.
• Launches games with a plain process spawn. No overlay, no telemetry, no always-on client.
• Keeps your manuals, soundtracks, and wallpapers next to each install.
