How it helps
Three things you feel in a game, and the Windows settings behind them.
Fewer ping spikes
Ping, DNS and bufferbloat tests find where a spike comes from. Network tweaks and Network Priority tune your PC, and the router guide shows how to fix bufferbloat.
More consistent mouse and input
Turn off mouse acceleration for consistent aim and stop USB devices from power-saving mid-game. A read-only timer test checks your PC's timer before you change anything.
100 tweaks, grouped as in the app
Free has 12, Plus 82 and Premium all 100. Every card says what it changes and how safe it is.

Safe by design
You decide every change, and you can take any tweak back.
Backed up, and undone any time
Before each change the app saves the original value, and it tries to create a Windows restore point before your first change (if Windows can't, it asks you first). Undo and Undo everything work in every plan, even if your licence ends. A tweak you applied stays applied until you undo it: nothing is undone for you. Cleaning files and repairs can't be undone; the app tells you before they run.
Nothing runs until you choose it
Nothing is changed until you choose a tweak or profile, and you always see what will change first. Every card shows its risk: 76 Safe, 22 Moderate and 2 High. Extreme tweaks stay hidden until you turn them on in Settings.
What the app never does
- Disabling Windows Defender, SmartScreen, Windows Update (for good), UAC or the firewall
- Turning off ASLR, Control Flow Guard or other exploit protections
- Removing the graphics card's thermal limits or the driver's watchdog
- Installing modified drivers or writing BIOS settings from Windows
- Editing game files or bypassing anti-cheat
- Downloading and running unknown files
The app's Support page lists all 17, with the reason for each.
Questions
Can I get a refund?
You get the refunds and other remedies the Australian Consumer Law requires, for example if the app has a major failure. Email support with your licence ID, or ask Link support (support.link.com), which sold you the licence and sent your receipt.
The refund policy explains your rights under the Australian Consumer Law.
Which Windows does it run on?
Windows 10 version 2004 (build 19041) or newer, or Windows 11, 64-bit. Windows Server isn't supported.
Is it safe?
Nothing is changed until you choose a tweak or profile, and you always see what will change first. Before each change the app saves the original value, and it tries to create a Windows restore point before your first change (if Windows can't, it asks you first).
Every card shows its risk, and the app never turns off Windows Defender, SmartScreen, UAC or the firewall, or exploit protections such as ASLR.
How do licence keys work?
After you pay, the page you come back to shows your licence key, and still shows it if you open it again later. In Combo's Tweaks, open Upgrade › Enter licence key, paste the key and type the email you paid with.
A licence is for one person, on their own PCs. A Plus or Premium licence lasts for the life of the major version you buy.
Do I need version 1.0.1?
Keys from the checkout need Combo's Tweaks 1.0.1 or newer: if you have an older version, download the latest first. Keys made before keep working.
