Privacy

To aid the application development this project uses Sentry.io to track all exceptions raised by the application. It is essential to identify bugs and fix them with minimal user intervention superseeding the need to user troubleshooting.

As part of Sentry error tracking the following information is being sent and is logged including, but not only:

  • Windows Version
  • .NET Framework Version
  • Exception Stack Trace
  • Application Version
  • Type of installation
  • Installation ID

Additionally for statistic purposes the installation ID, application version and which SteamDeckTools apps are used might be tracked as part of Update process to see active user-base vs version used.

The installation ID is one time generated GUID that is persisted on the first start of an application.

Application for auto-update purposes checks for latest release on a start, or every 24 hours.

All information being sent can be seen in a publically available source code of this application.

You can see exact exceptions being sent in Documents/SteamDeckTools/Logs

  • if it is empty it means nothing was sent.

Disable it

Create DisableCheckForUpdates.txt file. To validate that this is working, when clicking Check for Updates or running Updater.exe the application will show This application has explicitly disabled auto-updates.
