FAQ

General​

What's SteamTools?​

It’s a tool developed by chinese hackers used for injecting Lua & Manifest files into Steam.

What are the Manifest & Lua files for?​

They are files that contain game license data.

Can I add DLC's to a game I already own (bought)?​

Not yet.

Can my Steam account get banned?​

No. The games you add are fully client-side, so you can't get banned.

How to fix the “Content Configuration Unavailable” error?​

Go to C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\appcache and delete the appinfo.vdf file.

Generator (Manifestor.cc)​

How long does it take for a new game to become available in the generator?​

New (popular) games are usually added to the database within 4-9 days.

What does “Manifest not found” mean? I can’t download my game!​

The generator does not have every single game that's available on Steam. There is a database of license data that the generator uses to create the files that SteamTools can inject.

Can I hide ads from the website?​

No, but we’re considering adding a premium plan that would also have some other cool perks

The generation is taking forever!​

That happens when your game you're donwloading has a lot of DLC's

Is Manifestor.cc open-source?​

No. The only part of Manifestor.cc that's open-source is the Usage Guide (which you're on right now!)
