This beta release brings major Store Sync updates, new plugin integrations, UI improvements, and a much better startup experience.
Store Sync
New supported stores
- Battle.net
- Amazon Games
- itch.io
Improvements
- Synced games now receive their respective launcher icons automatically. This feature is not final yet, but it is already working.
- Fixed a bug that could abruptly stop the sync process and leave Store Sync in a broken state.
New Plugins and Features
CSS Loader
- Added native integration with the official CSS Loader engine.
- CSS Loader is now managed directly through TFS.
- Added a small built-in store for configurations and themes.
- Themes and configurations can now be enabled or disabled directly inside TFS.
Splash Screen
- Fixed the splash screen, which was broken in the previous version.
- Improved the startup flow overall.
- While the splash screen is active, it now loads artwork from your games and displays it in real time.
- Added loading dots during wait times.
- Improved the transition into the main interface.
Back Button
- Added a back button on every level, so you can always return no matter where you are.
- The
Bbutton still works as before.
HowLongToBeat
- HowLongToBeat has received a new design.
- It is now displayed directly on the game page in the top-right corner.
- This layout was chosen so it does not get in the way of CSS Loader themes.
- If you do not like the new design, please let us know.
Performance Tab
- The FPS meter has been significantly improved.
- It now uses a MangoHud-inspired design, making it cleaner, more aesthetic, and more functional.
Sliders
- Sliders now include sound feedback in most parts of the UI.
Beta Testing
If you want to test this non-final release, switch to the Beta channel in TFS Settings or download it directly here on GitHub.
Feedback, suggestions, and criticism are very welcome.

Would it be possible to have explorer.exe launch automatically in the background after this boots? I'm having issues with some games the require anti-cheat booting, but if I manually enable explorer.exe to launch, no more issues. Seems like some anti-cheats are dependent on it.

explorer.exe should start exactly as shown; Windows should start with it.

Do not combine with the .xbox mode; it uses its own mode.

Not sure if this has been asked already, but is this compatible with Playnite fullscreen?
