Witcher 3 - Remove Red Launcher (Steam)

[@JirkaDS]

Still work! Useful video! 👍❤

[@TheStowAway594]

Thank you so much for this, I'm gonna try it when I get home. I can't believe CDPR is forcing people to use a launcher, it really shows how much that company has changed since Witcher 3....and not for the better. It totally feels like the few people that were pro-consumer at CDPR got booted, or have just given up, which is very sad to see.

It's just a launcher grow up

[@altantulga8138]

@@jord6089its just a resource hogging bloatware launcher that people didnt ask for, ofc

@@jord6089 its collecting your data without even asking. LOL. "Its just a launcher" get real and realise how you are the victim by giving them your data..

In case you need to do know, this works with Cyberpunk 2077 as well and it's wonderful. Thanks for the video!

[@AverageCoxGaming]

Good to know, thank you

[@Flegont13]

There is only one problem - rewards are not awarded. Writes: Log in to your account and launch the game in Galaxy 2.0 :(

[@ranjanborkar1086]

I figured out why the game was not launching and then started trying to fix Red Launcher, tried a lot of different things nothing worked. Starting the game locally works but definitely wanted steam to start the game. This just solves everything. Thanks bud.

[@M0onlight_1234-w]

Like it when u try to play the game Is it keep show u to click play again and again right?

[@muhdasraf6862]

As of MAY 2024. Still work :) thanks 🙏

[@oluapavlis585]

Still working, thanks so much

[@TrueIrishAmerican]

over 10 other methods didn't work and I suspected that it was because of the red launcher due to it never appearing when I launched the game. Thanks to u my 88.2 hr playthrough can continue

[@razorr3065]

thats truly amazing man

[@AverageCoxGaming]

Glad to hear it!

[@adman1056]

[@AverageCoxGaming]

That's awesome that it helped so much

[@kentik6242]

If you're wondering if it works on the steam deck with the same steps then yes it still works as of today

How do I make it open the launcher. Its not opening nowadays like before in cp77

[@seanmurphy8202]

As of AUGUST 2024 still works, even on steam deck, as that’s what I’m using. THANK YOU

[@franks5767]

I have another issue, which is that steam isn't counting playing time or saving achievements if I achieve one. Could anyone help, please?

[@AverageCoxGaming]

😭

[@johnryanr.sedutan5642]

Hello! I tried it and after clicking play, it will load but won't continue to the game

[@arccturuss]

It worked! Thank you so much

[@Williod]

Thank you, man. It works.

[@julianas.3352]

How do you add more than one script? I already have "-forcescriptcompilation" to play with ps4 icons Edit: apparently "-forcescriptcompilation --launcher-skip" works. For some reason, it turns borderless window into windowed so you have to turn it off and back on again

[@julianas.3352]

Never mind the border less window issue I had. Seems like a one time thing

[@RetiredWitcherGeralt]

Thanks for that edit! Had to add it as a second script myself and your comment really helped.

[@Jason-fg9wn]

Not sure what they did to fuck up the game, but they're now asking permission to track everyones data which is absurd. Thanks for helping a brother out!!!

[@AverageCoxGaming]

I hate to sound like a Karen, but I’m so sick of these game companies making us use their portals to open a single player game

[@Jason-fg9wn]

@@AverageCoxGaming I agree 100%.

[@keithgoddard4192]

Thank you for this, my game just wouldn't start using the CDPR launcher.

[@jimlevenstein2583]

6.8.2024 and still works,nice.

[@FoggDawgThaHoodieMaskGod-gk1xo]

Didn't work for me, the launcher still popped up

[@quantummechanized2975]

so this fixes the crashing or is it still linked and just saves you afew seconds?

[@harveybrooks1460]

Works 😊❤ thank you very much. Launchers shouldnt be a thing for these type of games especially on steam deck.

[@AverageCoxGaming]

Drives me crazy. When I’m on a plane and try to play a single player game on Deck and can’t because of stupid launchers. Same thing with Jedi.

[@ashaashdiartha1362]

in my case is oppsite,red launcher did not appear and the game cant run too..until this day i run this game by run administrator not by steam.any idea to fix it?

[@AverageCoxGaming]

Hmm, idk sorry :(

@@AverageCoxGaming That only work for me once I changed the callback to DirectX 11 in the launcher-configuration.json file.

[@TheStowAway594]

Thanks dude! This worked. I'm running the DX11 version also, so when I entered in the "--launcher-skip" it would open then close the game. So I did what you said and changed the "launcher-configuration.json" and changed the "fallback" to "DirectX 11" and it works now. Just leaving a comment Incase someone else needs it.

It's always these stupid ass launchers they come up with that screws everything up. This is what happened to XCOM 2.

[@AverageCoxGaming]

Yea. They’re so annoying. EA Origins is a pain too. Especially on Steam Deck. I own the game, but no, as a single player it still has to launch online through a launcher.
