Common questions​

Some users may have some questions before or after downloading, we'll see the main ones here:

What's the difference between all the download options?​

  • Setup: the recommended way to install the launcher. It includes everything needed, so no additional installations are required.
  • .jar: requires Java to run. It's portable, meaning it can be run from any directory.
  • .exe (included in the .zip file only): the .jar converted to .exe using Exe4j. The only difference is that the .exe provides an error message if Java is missing or outdated (and has a nicer icon).
    It can be said that it's to simplify things for Windows users when there was no Setup (so in the future it will no longer be available for download).

Is it a virus?​

Visit this link for more information, since this is a very complex question to be simplified and answered in simple terms.
If you want something short: No! SKlauncher never had, doesn't have and never will have viruses!
