These terms govern the purchase and use of OptiCore, the program for optimizing Windows PCs, and of the Tech Boost. By purchasing, you accept these terms, the Privacy Policy and the Refund Policy. If anything is unclear, ask us before you pay.
1. Who sells
Brand: OptiCore
Customer service: discord.gg/WxeG8DrFT, in the support channel. All customer service (support, licenses, refunds, complaints and claims) happens on Discord.
Payment is processed by Lemon Squeezy (Lemon Squeezy LLC), which acts as reseller, or merchant of record: it sells you the license on behalf of OptiCore, collects your country's taxes and issues your receipt. Its purchase terms also apply to the payment.
2. What you're buying: a license to use
- You are buying a personal, non-exclusive and non-transferable license to use OptiCore on 1 PC for the plan you choose. The program remains the property of its owner.
- The activation code is personal. You may not resell, share or publish it.
- If you change PCs or reinstall Windows, message us and we'll help you move the license to the new computer.
- OptiCore runs on 64-bit Windows 10 and 11. Check the requirements before you buy.
3. Plans and duration
| Plan | Pricing | Duration |
|---|---|---|
| Weekly | US$3 | 7 days from when you activate the code. Includes Optimize everything, Game Booster and the performance receipt. |
| Monthly Pro | US$15 | 30 days from when you activate the code. Adds crosshairs, the FPS counter, the network test and support on Discord. |
| Monthly Plus | US$25 | 30 days from when you activate the code. Includes every OptiCore feature and priority support on Discord. |
| Lifetime | US$250 | Everything in Monthly Plus for as long as OptiCore is developed, with every update, early access to new apps and 24/5 support on Discord. If we ever stop developing it, the last version you have will keep working on your PC. |
| Tech Boost | +US$20 | One session with a technician, added to any plan (see section 5). |
No plan renews automatically. We don't store your card or make recurring charges. When the week or month ends, OptiCore asks you for a new code; the changes it already made to your PC stay, and you can still undo them.
4. Price, payment and delivery
- Prices are in US dollars (US$). Your country's taxes are calculated and shown on the checkout page before you confirm.
- You can pay with the methods Lemon Squeezy offers (card, PayPal, Apple Pay or Google Pay, depending on your country). OptiCore never sees or stores your card details.
- Before you pay, you see an order summary that you can correct or cancel. The purchase is completed when you confirm payment.
- The activation code and the receipt arrive at the email address you provided, usually within minutes. If you haven't received them within 24 hours, message us.
- We keep a record of your purchase (product, date, amount, payment method and code delivery) as proof of the business relationship.
5. Tech Boost
- It's a Discord session in which an OptiCore technician optimizes your PC with you: they check the BIOS, RAM, drivers and your games, and explain each step. It lasts up to [60] minutes.
- You stay in control. You share your screen and make the changes yourself, guided by the technician. Nobody takes remote control of your PC.
- You pick the day and time on the website. After you pay, we'll message you on Discord to confirm it. You need to be at your PC, with Discord and a stable connection.
- Rescheduling: you can reschedule at no cost with at least 24 hours' notice. If you don't show up within the first 15 minutes without notice, you can reschedule once; if you also miss the second appointment, the session is considered delivered.
- Confidentiality: what we see on your screen is used only for the session. We don't keep screenshots or record the session unless you expressly authorize it.
- Some BIOS settings, like enabling XMP/EXPO, may require a restart and, in rare cases, cause instability. We explain how to roll back before making them, and they're only applied if you agree.
6. What OptiCore changes on your PC
OptiCore modifies Windows settings to improve performance. Before applying anything, it tells you what changes and how risky it is, saves the original values and, before “Optimize all”, creates a restore point. Everything can be undone from “Undo changes”.
Depending on what you choose, it may change: Windows registry keys, services (for example, telemetry, SysMain or Search), the power plan, network and DNS settings, NVIDIA driver profiles, Microsoft Defender exclusions for development folders, config files of some games and scheduled tasks. While you play, Game Booster pauses Windows Update and other background services and turns them back on when you close the game.
Settings you should read about before applying:
- Turning off memory integrity (HVCI) reduces Windows protection, and some anti-cheats, like Vanguard or FACEIT, may not start.
- Emptying the Recycle Bin and deleting crash dumps or caches removes those files permanently.
- Restarting into the BIOS and changing its settings is your responsibility; OptiCore only guides you.
- The “Recommended” section installs third-party programs with winget, accepting each program's license on your behalf. Those programs belong to their makers and are governed by their own terms.
We recommend backing up your important files before optimizing, as with any program that changes system settings.
7. Games and anti-cheats
- OptiCore doesn't read or write game memory, doesn't inject code and, with strict anti-cheats, doesn't change the priority of the game process.
- Even so, the decisions of anti-cheats and developers are out of our hands and may change. We can't guarantee how a third party will act.
- The crosshair and the FPS counter are windows on top of the game. Many tournaments and leagues ban external crosshairs: use them only where they're allowed. Following the rules of each game and competition is your responsibility.
8. Results
The gain depends on your hardware, your Windows and each game. With Windows tweaks the usual result is a small gain, mostly in lows and stutters; the big gains come from fixing things like RAM without XMP/EXPO or a monitor running at fewer hertz than it can. We don't guarantee a specific FPS figure. The figures on the website are examples. With “Measure my gain” you can check the real result on your own PC.
9. Permitted use
The following is not allowed: copying, decompiling or modifying OptiCore; bypassing activation; reselling, renting or sharing codes; or using the program for illegal purposes or to damage other people's computers. If you break these rules, we may deactivate your license, without prejudice to your rights as a consumer.
OptiCore, its logo and its design are the property of their owner. VALORANT, Counter-Strike, Fortnite, NVIDIA, AMD and all other game, software and brand names mentioned belong to their owners; OptiCore is not affiliated with or endorsed by them and names them only to indicate compatibility.
10. Warranty
OptiCore comes with the legal warranty under Law 1480 of 2011 (Colombian Consumer Protection Statute): it must work as described. If it doesn't work on your PC, message us: we'll fix it and, if that's not possible, we'll refund your money. For the right of withdrawal and refunds, see the Refund Policy.
11. Liability
We are liable for OptiCore and for the Tech Boost under Colombian law. Nothing in these terms limits the rights the law gives you as a consumer. We are not liable for damage caused by using the program contrary to its warnings and instructions, for pre-existing hardware faults, for changes made outside OptiCore or for decisions by third parties, such as anti-cheats or game developers.
12. Minors
To purchase, you must be of legal age or have the authorization of your parent or guardian, who accepts these terms on your behalf.
13. Requests, complaints and claims
You can submit a request, complaint or claim by:
- Discord: discord.gg/WxeG8DrFT, in the support channel.
Include your name, the email used for the purchase, what happened and what you're requesting. We'll give you a filing number with the date and time of receipt so you can track it, and we'll respond within a maximum of 15 business days. If you're not satisfied, you can go to the Superintendencia de Industria y Comercio (SIC, Colombia's consumer and data protection authority).
14. Governing law and changes
These terms are governed by the laws of Colombia, in particular Law 1480 of 2011 (Colombian Consumer Protection Statute). If you buy from another country, you keep the rights your country's law gives you. We may update these terms; changes don't affect purchases already made, and we'll post the date of each version on this page.
