STEAM is a trademark of Valve Corporation.

This app has no affiliation with Steam and Valve.

Important Notice

Currently I'm not adding new things to this program since A. it has everything that I need and B. it works. But any bug report or suggestion is welcome.

Features

  • Switch between your accounts with just few clicks.

  • No more entering ID, password and Steam Guard code every time you login to another account.

  • Restarting Steam with single click.

  • Unlike some other programs, your passwords are NOT required. Only uses your usernames.

  • Auto-importing your Steam accounts. Do more clicking, less typing.

  • Auto-updating is built-in, and it's fast. (Unless GitHub's server is having a hard time..)

Requirements (for executable release)

  • 64-bit Windows
  • Steam installed correctly
  • Visual C++ Redistributable for Visual Studio 2015 or 2017

How to use

  1. Unpack the archive to desired folder
  2. Run the exe (Do NOT change the name of the executable!)
  • Because this program is not code-signed, Windows SmartScreen might pop up. Click 'More info' and then 'Run anyway'.
  1. Import accounts from Steam or add them manually via Menu > Add accounts
  • Your account names are saved in accounts.yml located in the same folder where exe file is.
  1. Click one of the buttons to change to desired account.
  • Steam login prompt might appear if you are using this program for the first time. Just check 'Remember password' and login. It will work next time.
    • You need to do this for every account except the one you have been using as autologin account prior to using this program.
    • If you ever add more accounts, you have to do this for them as well. And if you don't login to certain account for a while, you will have to do this again for that account due to Steam revoking autologin access.

FAQ

  • Login prompt appears! Fake program!

    • See How to use-4. Right above.
  • Windows SmartScreen says this program is potentially harmful!

    • That's because I didn't sign my executable with EV certificate which costs money. As you know, this program is free. Also, it's malicious code-free, so don't worry about it.
  • I have a request! / I found a bug!

    • Bug reports and requests are always welcome. Please submit an issue.
  • Some of the elements in settings are missing!

    • Delete config.yml and launch application again.
