Essentially, it is no different from settings like 120 FPS in mobile devices. However, you should still use it with caution and read the [user agreement](../statements/tos.md) on your own. ::: - Run Snap Hutao as administrator - Enter Game Launcher page - At the bottom of the page, you can find `Unlock Frame Rate Limit` option - Trigger the switch to enable or disable this feature - In the `Set Frame Rate Limit` field, you can adjust the limit freely - Fact that may cause **failure in unlocking frame rate limit**: - Snap Hutao process is not kept in the background - `V-Sync` is not set to off in the game - `Max Framerate` limit is not changed in your graphic card settings - `Power Saving` mode is not disabled in power settings - Your graphic card is not powerful enough ### Multi-Client ::: danger Multiple instances of the game client is a far more dangerous feature compared to unlocking the framerate limit. You should personally or invite a technically knowledgeable professional to review the code and make your own judgment on whether to use this feature. **Using this feature may cause the anti-cheat system in Genshin Impact to fail to load, and the game client will report this situation to miHoYo's servers.** ::: 1. Run Snap Hutao as administrator 2. Enter Game Launcher page 3. At the bottom of the page, enable `Multi-Client` option 4. Click `Launch` button on the top-right of the window 5.
