 FSE App Launcher for Windows
</h1>
Resurrect the acclaimed tablet mode in Windows 11—a launchpad designed for the brand new Xbox mode.

## Highlights

- Inspired by **tablet mode** in Windows 10. An ideal match for **Xbox mode**[^1]. **Set it as the home app** to enhance the experience. (see "[System Requirements](#system-requirements)")
- Launch **any installed app**, **not just games**. Eliminate the need to switch back and forth between Xbox mode[^1] and desktop.
- Quick access to **popular gaming platforms**[^2] and **missing desktop features**. Remember the Windows 8 fiasco? You no longer have to open Game Bar just to **shut down** your device.
- **Native context menu** with suppport for "Open file location", "Uninstall", etc. A substitute to the all apps list of Start Menu.
- Native support for touch screen, high DPI, dark mode, and Mica.

## System Requirements

### Minimum requirements

- Windows 11, version 21H2+

### Other requirements

#### If you intend to set it as the home app of Xbox mode[^1]:

- Windows 11, version 25H2+
- The device is a gaming handheld

> ℹ️ Only Full Edition supports setting as the home app of Xbox mode[^1].
