01 · What we don't do
We never touch
your games.
These are hard limits — not preferences. InputLag is architecturally prohibited from interacting with game processes.
No DLL injection
InputLag never injects code into running games or modifies game memory.
No game file modifications
No patches, hooks, or edits to Valorant, CS2, Apex, Fortnite, or any installed game files.
No cheat behavior
InputLag does not automate aim, input, recoil, movement, macros, scripts, or gameplay actions.
No hidden miners or background abuse
No crypto mining, hidden monetization, or suspicious background activity.
02 · How it works
Windows-level tuning,
nothing deeper.
Every optimization targets the Windows layer between hardware and applications — the scheduler, network stack, power management. Not the game.
Windows-native APIs
Uses standard Windows scheduling, networking, power-management, and system configuration interfaces.
Reversible tweaks
Every system change can be restored. InputLag keeps all changes transparent and reversible.
Local optimization only
Optimizations are applied on your PC to reduce system overhead and responsiveness issues.
Session-aware changes
Where possible, optimizations can be applied during active gameplay and reverted afterward.
03 · Anti-cheat compatibility
Two separate zones.
InputLag stays in its lane.
InputLag works outside the protected game environment. Windows-level responsiveness and system tuning — not game manipulation.

04 · Safety checklist
Ten things InputLag
will never do.
No game memory access
No DLL injection
No file patching
No aim assist
No macros
No recoil scripts
No packet manipulation
No crypto miners
Reversible tweaks
Local actions only
05 · Transparency
Built to be
understandable.
InputLag should never feel like a black box. Every optimization is labeled, categorized by risk level, and designed to be restored when needed.
Risk labels
Every optimization is tagged by risk level before you apply it.
Before / after descriptions
See exactly what changes, why, and how it affects your system.
Restore controls
One-click restore on every change. Nothing is permanent.
Local system actions
All operations run on your machine. No data sent to servers about your tweaks.
Discord support
Ask the community anything. Every optimization can be discussed and reviewed.
Optimize your PC,
not your games.
Lower system overhead, improve responsiveness, and keep your setup clean.
