Topic: Launcher and Azimuth
The launcher installs a few things next to azimuth.exe. This page tells you what each one is, so you know what is safe to touch.
| File or folder | What it is | Safe to delete? |
|---|---|---|
| fh2-mods\FH2MP.dll | FH2MP itself, a Mod Platform mod | No: the launcher puts it back on Play |
| DWrite.dll, d3dcompiler_47.dll | FH2 Mod Platform loader (Trinculo54) | No |
| fh2-mods\platform.log | Mod Platform log | Yes |
| fh2-mods\platform-disabled.txt | Mods you turned off on the MODS tab | Yes, turns them all back on |
| winmm.dll, FH2_ExtraOptions.ini, mods\ | FH2 Extra Options (RokkuDayo) and its content folder | No |
| fh2-mods\HonkHonk.dll, fh2-mods\HonkHonk.ini, fh2-mods\HonkHonk\ | HonkHonk horn mod (suderek22) | No |
| fh2mp\ | FH2MP's copy of the car database | No |
| data\bin\fh2mp.log | FH2MP's log of the last game | Yes |
| data\bin\fh2mp-identity.txt | Which save profile belongs to your account | No |
| *.before-fh2mp-setup, *.before-fh2mp-setup-2 | Backups of files the launcher replaced, for example an older DWrite.dll | Yes, once everything works |
| *.before-fh2mp-controls, *.before-fh2mp-restore | Backups of FH2_ExtraOptions.ini from before the launcher changed button settings | Yes, once everything works |
| data\bin\azimuth-tls.dll.replaced | An old Azimuth 0.9.x helper the launcher moved aside | Yes |
| FH2_ExtraOptions.log | Extra Options' log | Yes |
Files the launcher doesn't keep
The launcher's own settings, cache and launcher.log are not in the Azimuth folder:
•Windows: %APPDATA%\FH2MP (settings) and %LOCALAPPDATA%\FH2MP\cache (cache and launcher.log)
•Linux: ~/.config/fh2mp and ~/.cache/fh2mp
Settings > Data folder opens it.
Why the launcher replaces newer files
The launcher installs exactly the versions it was tested with. If you put a newer Extra Options or Mod Platform in place, it puts its own back when you press PLAY and keeps yours as a .before-fh2mp-setup file. See [Which Azimuth and mod versions work with FH2MP](/tutorials/supported-versions).
