Download and first launch

Get the official app, open it on Windows, and reach the sign-in screen.

TinyBoost is portable: you download one signed TinyBoost.exe file and open it. There is no installer to work through.

What your PC needs#

Step 1: Download the single signed program#

Use the official TinyBoost download. If the website asks you to sign in, use the account associated with your access.

The executable contains the components TinyBoost needs. You do not need to install a separate sensor app.

Step 2: Put it somewhere sensible#

Create a TinyBoost folder inside Program Files and move the executable there. Windows may ask for administrator permission.

TinyBoost requires an administrator-protected Program Files folder for automatic updates. If you keep it in Downloads or on the Desktop, replace it manually with a fresh official download when an update is needed.

Step 3: Open it as administrator#

  1. Open the folder containing TinyBoost.
  2. Right-click the executable and choose Run as administrator.
  3. Check the app and publisher in the Windows prompt, then approve your official copy.
  4. Wait for the TinyBoost sign-in screen.

If you see TinyBoost - Administrator Required, close the message and repeat these steps with administrator permission.

Step 4: If Windows or your antivirus complains#

Windows protected your PC#

Check that you used the official download. Choose More info to inspect the publisher before deciding whether to continue. If the publisher is missing or unexpected, stop and contact support.

Your antivirus blocks or deletes it#

Check the detection name and the file's digital signature. Contact support if you are unsure. Keep antivirus protection enabled; do not add a broad folder exclusion to make the app run.

Step 5: What happens the first time#

Choose Sign in with Google or Sign in with Discord, complete sign-in in your browser, and return to TinyBoost. Use the same email as your purchase or trial.

If you reach an access screen instead of the dashboard, follow Sign-in and access. You do not need to look for a licence key.

Once inside, open PC Health → System Restore Point if you want to create a restore point before changing settings. Wait for the success message; do not assume a restore point exists just because the app opened.

Next: Start your first gaming session, or take the app tour.

Only one copy at a time#

If TinyBoost says TinyBoost is already running, check the taskbar and the Windows notification area near the clock. Closing the window may have sent it to the tray. Reopen the existing app and finish any running job before trying again.

Removing TinyBoost#

  1. Finish your match, then press STOP if a gaming session is active.
  2. To undo supported TinyBoost changes, use PC Health → Reset All Settings → Reset Everything and read the confirmation.
  3. Restart Windows when requested.
  4. Close TinyBoost fully, including its tray icon, and delete the executable.
  5. If you also want to remove its local settings and sign-in cache, delete the TinyBoost folder inside %PROGRAMDATA% after the app is closed.

Reset cannot recover deleted files or all removed apps. Read what can and cannot be undone first.
