Advanced Settings Options

Select Advanced Settings in Sliprail Settings to open the advanced dialog.

• Auto-hide launcher after losing focus - Enabled by default. The launcher closes when another window receives focus
• Show open app windows - Enabled by default. Open windows appear in launcher results
• Run as Administrator - Windows only. Enabling it relaunches Sliprail with administrator privileges. To turn it off completely, quit Sliprail from the system tray and launch it again

Administrator mode can help Sliprail shortcuts interact with elevated Windows processes, but it should only be enabled when needed.
