Ever wish you could just launch a game and have everything else get out of the way? Vapor is a lightweight Windows utility that watches for Steam game launches and applies your preferred settings automatically—so you can jump straight into the action.
Set it once, forget it exists. Vapor handles the tedious stuff so you can focus on gaming.
Automatically close messaging apps when you start playing. They reopen when you're done.
Close resource-heavy apps to give your game more RAM and CPU headroom.
Set system and game volume to your preferred levels automatically. Perfect for late-night gaming or immersive sessions.
Switch to High Performance mode when gaming, then back to Balanced when you quit. No more digging through settings.
Monitor CPU and GPU temps in real-time with customizable alerts. Know before things get too hot.
