Rezeptor Documentation

Official handbook for Rezeptor — install, validate, launch, and cleanly remove Windows software under Proton-GE on Linux. For users and recipe authors.

Important for newcomers

Rezeptor does not redistribute Windows applications. You bring your legal source (BYOS). Each recipe knows how to install, repair, validate, launch, and uninstall under Proton-GE.

Quick start

1. Download a release or run ./setup.sh in a clone
2. Pick a recipe → set source → Install
3. Check status (F5) → Launch
4. Overview → User guide

Switch language: top right (DE / EN).
