FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Is PatronLauncher free?
Yes. It is completely free and open source (AGPL-3.0). Minecraft itself requires a license from Mojang/Microsoft.
Is signing in with my Microsoft account safe?
Sign-in completes in your browser on Microsoft’s own page (OAuth PKCE). Your password is never typed into the launcher. Session data is stored encrypted in Windows Credential Manager.
What is an offline / local account for?
Single-player and local use. Local accounts cannot join servers that require Microsoft authentication.
Can I move my mods and worlds over?
Yes. Each profile has its own folder (%APPDATA%\#PatronLauncher\instances); you can copy an existing .minecraft folder into a profile.
Which Minecraft versions are supported?
All modern stable releases, and snapshots can be browsed; profile creation is limited to versions the core supports, and the reason is shown in the panel.
Is there a macOS or Linux build?
Windows only for now. Other platforms are on the roadmap; follow along on Discord.
