🚀 Install

🪟 Windows

1. Download PS4 Game Browser v*.exe from the releases page.
2. Put it anywhere you like — Desktop, Downloads, a folder on your D: drive, even a USB stick. No installer.
3. Double-click to run.
4. Windows will probably show a blue "Windows protected your PC" screen — this happens to every small app that doesn't pay Microsoft for a code-signing certificate. Click More info, then Run anyway.
5. The app remembers nothing about its location. To "uninstall," just delete the .exe. To move it, drag it anywhere.

🍎 Mac

1. Download the .app.zip file that matches your Mac (see the table above).
2. Double-click the .zip to unzip — you'll get PS4 Game Browser.app.
3. Put it anywhere you want — Applications, Desktop, an external drive. Then double-click to open.
4. The first time you open it: macOS will refuse and say "PS4 Game Browser can't be opened because Apple cannot check it for malicious software." This is normal for apps not sold through the App Store.
   • Right-click (or Control-click) the app → choose Open → click Open on the warning dialog.
   • You only have to do this once. After that, double-click works normally.
5. Future updates install automatically without re-prompting.

🐧 Linux

1. Download PS4 Game Browser v*_amd64.AppImage.
2. Right-click it → Properties → make it executable.
   (Or in a terminal: chmod +x "PS4 Game Browser"*.AppImage)
3. Double-click to run. Put it wherever you like — it's a single file with no install step.

🔄 How updates work

Open the app. That's it.

• 8 seconds after launch, it checks for a new version.
• If one's available, you'll see a dialog: "Update available: v4.0.1 (12 MB)? App will restart."
• Click OK → it downloads in the background → app closes briefly → reopens on the new version. Takes about 30 seconds.
• Click Cancel if you want to skip this one. It'll ask again next time you open the app.

No accounts. No telemetry. No nagware. The update check is one quick request to GitHub and that's it.

🎯 Using the app

Once you're in:

What you want	How to do it
🔍 Find a game	Type in the search box at the top
🆕 See what's new	The default view shows newest first
🅰️ Browse alphabetically	Click the Sort: Date button — it flips to Sort: Title
📥 Download a game	Click any game card → pick a mirror in the popup
🔄 Refresh the library	Click the Refresh button to pull the latest list

Multi-part downloads are grouped by host, so you'll see something like:

Mediafire    P01  P02  P03  P04
Vikingfile   P01  P02  P03  P04
Rootz        P01  P02  P03  P04
Gofile       Open

Just click each part in order and you've got the full game.

❓ Troubleshooting

"Windows protected your PC" on first launch

This is Microsoft's SmartScreen warning for apps that aren't signed with a Code Signing certificate (which costs hundreds of dollars a year for indie developers). The app is safe — the warning is just because it's new.

Fix: click More info in the blue dialog, then Run anyway.

Mac says "can't be opened" or "developer cannot be verified"

Standard macOS Gatekeeper behavior for apps not from the App Store. The app is safe.

Fix: find the app in Finder → right-click → Open → Open on the dialog. Only needed once.

App won't update / update prompt never appears

A few things to check:

• Make sure your computer can reach github.com (corporate firewalls sometimes block it).
• Close and reopen the app — the check runs 8 seconds after startup.
• If you've been opening and closing the app dozens of times within an hour, GitHub may have rate-limited your IP for an hour. Wait and try again.
• If you click OK on the update but nothing happens, your antivirus may be blocking the installer. Temporarily disable it and try again, or download manually from the releases page.

Two windows open when I double-click the icon

Shouldn't happen with v4.0.0+ — the app prevents a second copy from opening and just focuses the existing window. If you're on an older version, update.

Game list is empty / "Failed to load"

The app pulls the library list from a cloud source on launch. If that source is briefly unreachable, you'll see an empty list. Click Refresh after a minute. If it still doesn't load, the source may be down — check back later.

Multi-part downloads are confusing

Big games are split into multiple files. You need ALL the parts from the SAME host to extract the game.

• Pick ONE host row (e.g. Mediafire, Vikingfile, Rootz — whatever you prefer).
• Download every part in that row: P01, P02, P03, P04...
• Once they're all in the same folder, extract the first one — your archive tool (7-Zip, WinRAR, The Unarchiver) automatically pulls in the rest.

Don't mix parts from different hosts.

How do I uninstall?

Easy — there's no installer to uninstall. The app is fully portable on every platform:

• Windows: delete the .exe file.
• Mac: drag PS4 Game Browser.app to the Trash.
• Linux: delete the .AppImage file.

If you want to clear remembered settings too: delete the small config file the app stores in your user data folder (%APPDATA%\com.nookie.ps4browser\ on Windows, ~/Library/Application Support/com.nookie.ps4browser/ on Mac, ~/.local/share/com.nookie.ps4browser/ on Linux).
