Install Hideway

1. Download Hideway-3.1.0.zip.
2. Extract it to a folder you own, for example D:\Hideway. Do not run it from inside the zip.
3. Start HidewayLauncher.exe, the only program at the top of the folder (the Hideway hub: library of games, system check, updates; everything else is inside core). Accept the administrator prompt (the DMA transport needs it). Sign in once, then press Launch on the game card.
4. Sign in with your license key or the Web Loader.

Requirements

• Windows 10 (64-bit) or Windows 11 - tested on Windows 10 22H2
• The DMA hardware the program is built for (without it, Hideway.exe --demo shows the interface with synthetic data).
• A license from the publisher, and an internet connection for the license and update checks.

Updates

The program checks https://hideway-dl.hideway.workers.dev/update for signed releases, downloads them in the background, verifies signatures and hashes, and installs only when you press Restart to install (CONFIG → UPDATES). A failed update restores the previous version automatically.

Uninstall

Close the program and delete the folder. Saved license data is stored encrypted for your Windows account under your user profile (%LOCALAPPDATA%); use Sign out in the program before deleting if you want it removed.
