The record

Purpose: GameShift detects game launches, applies system level optimizations for each title, and restores changes when the game exits.
Game detection: It detects games from Steam, Epic Games, GOG Galaxy, and Xbox/Game Pass directories, with a built in database of over 80 game executables.
Game profiles: The project lists 19 built in profiles with hardware specific tuning and anti cheat metadata, plus per game optimization controls.
Optimization features: Listed optimizations include process priority, service and task suppression, memory management, timer resolution, power plans, CPU scheduling, network tuning, and GPU driver settings.
Monitoring: The app lists live CPU, GPU, RAM, VRAM, and network telemetry, temperature monitoring, DPC latency tools, session history, driver advisories, and frame time benchmarking.
Reversibility: The project says it records original values in an atomic state journal and verifies and reverts changes when a game exits.
Crash recovery limit: Automatic recovery after an app crash or blue screen is in development and is not enabled in the current build.
Anti cheat: GameShift says it does not inject into game processes, modify game files, or hook game memory, and describes automatic compatibility adjustments for several anti cheat systems.
Privacy: The maker says the app makes no network calls except to check for GitHub updates, collects no telemetry, and stores data locally.
Permissions: Administrator privileges are required for service control, registry access, timer resolution, and power plan management.
Requirements: The stated requirements are 64 bit Windows 10 21H2 or later or Windows 11 22H2 or later, 8 GB RAM minimum, and administrator privileges.
Download: The maker directs users to download GameShift.App.exe from the GitHub Releases page.
License: The repository states that GameShift is licensed under the MIT License.
