Hello, I totally missed your PR today, I am terrible sorry. I've added an admin-check already. About the host-file modification I'd rather not do that as some AntiVirus (Kasperksy) have had issues with these in the past and flaged apps as malicious. Steam on the other hand is a good idea. Do you see a way to automatically detect if steam is neccessary or not? I'd like to automatically decide about start-up in the background instead.

not a problem! :) maybe what you are looking for is contained within these files;

Steam/config/libraryfolders.vdf (to locate appmanifest_*.acf)
SteamLibrary/steamapps/appmanifest_*.acf

there should be a list of all the steam 'appid' & 'installdir' that are actively installed on the system.

steam games can also be launched via 'steam://rungameid/game_id'

Hey man, greatly appreciate you making this mod so early! What I loved in your Sekiro mod was the ability to "disable camera auto rotate adjustment on movement". It is desperately needed here as well for horse combat with KB+M. Cheers!
