A boost you can always take back

Every Safe Boost is a single transaction: previewed, applied together, and undone together. That is what makes it safe to try.

Better every few days

Q8Booster went from 1.0 to 1.6 in nine days, and it keeps moving. New builds ship when they're ready, and the app tells you when there's one waiting.

  • Checks for updates quietly when it starts
  • Installs only when you press the button, never mid-game
  • Suggest a feature from inside the app and it goes straight to the developer
  1. v1.6.0Latest13 Sep 2026

    Every screen, and where the lag starts

    Refresh rate, HDR and the primary screen for every monitor, each game pinned to its own graphics chip, and the classic right-click menu back in one click. Network now shows whether delay starts at your router or your provider.

  2. v1.4.09 Sep 2026

    A Dashboard that shows its work

    The PC diorama lights only the part being checked, and the Health Check flags a screen running below its refresh rate, like a 144 Hz monitor left at 60 Hz. Menus are drawn by the app, so they open the right way round in Arabic.

  3. v1.3.19 Sep 2026

    Ask for a change

    Request a feature from inside the app, without sending any personal data. Every request reaches the developer.

  4. v1.2.19 Sep 2026

    Arabic that is typeset, not just mirrored

    Arabic gets its own type and spacing, Toolkit shows what changed on this PC, and Windows boot time sits on the Dashboard next to what's usual for your machine.

Built to be trusted with your PC

Most “optimisers” ask for blind faith. Q8Booster is built on three promises instead, and it keeps them in code.

See it before it happens

Every action shows the exact registry value, service state or setting as it is now and as it would be.

Measured, or not claimed

Latency, jitter, space freed: real numbers taken on your machine. No score out of 100, no invented FPS gains.

Always a way back

Each change is journaled with its original value first. Restoring is free, forever, on every licence.

Change anything on its own

No background schedule and no side effect of opening a page. A change happens when you press the button that describes it.

Touch a game

No injection, no hooks, no kernel driver, no reading a game's memory or files.

Weaken Windows security

Defender, UAC, SmartScreen and the firewall are reported on, never switched off.

Delete without a way back

Cleanup quarantines, registry residue is exported first, and the journal keeps every original value.

Send your data anywhere

Local by default. The licence check carries a key and an anonymous device hash. Telemetry is opt-in and off.

Show a number it didn't measure

No score out of 100, no invented percentage gains, no progress bar pretending to work.

Start free. Go Pro when you want more.

Everything that protects your PC or undoes a change is free, permanently. Pro adds deeper measurement and automation.

Questions, answered

The straight answers people ask for before installing a tool that touches Windows.

Will this give me more FPS?

It can, but anyone who promises a number is guessing. Q8Booster cuts background contention and applies the settings Windows provides for games. How much that shows up as frames depends on your hardware and your game, so the app measures instead of promising.

Can it get my game account banned?

It never reads or writes any game's memory, files or process, and it injects no code and installs no hooks or kernel driver. Those are what anti-cheat looks for. It only changes Windows settings, with your permission.

What if something goes wrong?

Every change is journaled with its original value before it's applied, so Restore Center can put it back exactly. A change interrupted by a crash or power cut is repaired the next time the app starts. Restoring never needs a licence.

Does it disable Windows Defender or UAC?

No, and it refuses to. Switching off security to make a number look better is what makes most “optimisers” dangerous. The Security page reports on your protections and has no switch to weaken them.

How often is it updated?

Often. Version 1.0 shipped on 4 September and 1.6 on 13 September. The app checks for a new build when it starts and installs it when you press the button, never while a game is running.

What leaves my PC?

By default, only a licence check: your key and an anonymous device fingerprint. No telemetry unless you opt in. Subtitles and screen reading run on your own processor, and no audio or image leaves the machine.

Why does Windows warn me when I install it?

The installer isn't code-signed yet, so SmartScreen has no publisher record for it. Check the SHA-256 on the download page if you want certainty. The warning goes away once the certificate is in place.

Can I move my licence to another PC?

Yes. A key covers one PC at a time: release it from Account on the old PC and activate it on the new one. Settings can also export your language, appearance and game profiles.

Questions before you buy?

Ask about licences, payment, or whether it will run on your PC. You'll get a reply from the person who builds it.
