Steam

GameVault+ integrates with Steam through Steam Sync. When enabled, your installed games are added to your Steam library as Non-Steam Games. Starting them from Steam launches them through GameVault and keeps your configured launch options.

Setup Guide

Prerequisites

Before you start, make sure Steam is installed, you are logged into your Steam account, and you are logged in to GameVault+ in the GameVault client.

Step 1: Enable Steam Sync

  1. Fully shut down your Steam client using the Exit Steam button.
  2. Open the GameVault Application and click on the Settings tab.
  3. Navigate to GameVault+ -> Features -> Steam.
  4. Toggle Sync to enable the integration.
  5. Restart Steam. Your installed games will then sync to your Steam library.

Important Notes

  • GameVault does not touch any of your existing game shortcuts. If any issues arise, such as lost or corrupted non-Steam game shortcuts, you can restore them using the Restore Backup button. This will revert your shortcuts to their original state before any changes were made by GameVault.
  • The sync will always target the last logged in Steam account. If you have multiple Steam accounts, just log in to the one you want to use. Then repeat the setup process.
  • Steam usually requires a restart to sync the library, so make sure to restart Steam after you install or uninstall games to see the changes.
