F.A.Q

Questions people usually ask

Windows warns about an "unknown publisher", is it safe?

Yes, it's safe, it's just not code-signed. Choose "More info → Run anyway" to start it. If you want to check it first, compare your download with the SHA-256 on this page.

Windows SmartScreen dialog with More info highlighted
Step 1. Choose “More info”.
Windows SmartScreen dialog with Run anyway highlighted
Step 2. Choose “Run anyway”.
Will it change my game, mods or saves?

No. The only thing it can add there is a small bridge plugin in `BepInEx/plugins` and only if you connect the game for CharaStudio or Chara Maker actions.

Do I need Koikatsu installed?

No. You can scan, browse and manage scene, character card and coordinate files without the game. Koikatsu is only needed when you want to open something in CharaStudio or Chara Maker.

Can it lose or damage my files?

Scanning only reads files. It never changes them. File changes happen only when you choose an edit or organize action. Deletes go to Trash, Organize shows the plan first and editing assets keeps a backup.

Does it send my scenes, cards or tags anywhere?

No. KK Library does not upload your scenes, cards, tags or any other file. Your collection stays on your PC.

How do I get updates?

When a new version is out, the app shows a download link. Grab the new ZIP and replace the old folder. Your settings and data stay where they are. Nothing updates itself in the background.

How do I remove it?

It is portable, so there is nothing to uninstall. Delete the folder and it is gone.
