I can't seem to get this to work. I just bought a stream deck for my sim racing. I set up a profile to have the buttons I need for the game (profile 2). I set up another profile (profile 1) that has a folder with all my racing games. As you showed, I selected the specific game so that when I open it then profile 2 will open. It's not working. When selecting the application to trigger the change, does it have to be the .exe file or can I use the shortcut?

Hi thank you for reaching out, this really depends on the game and how it is handling its processes, Stream Deck is watching out for the .exe file that you link to it (a shortcut should also work). if the game now starts the game actually in an entirely different process (some do that) then Stream Deck will not find it and therefore also not switch to that process and activate the profile. Which game/Simulation are you referring to? Things to check: - Desktop app is closed - only the background service is running (tray icon is there)? - does it work with other apps? As a workaround you can do the following: - create a multi action - add an open action - launch the game with this action - add a switch profile action - switch to the sim racing profile Hope this helps
