BetterVencordPatch

An efficient program which lets you install Vencord without user interaction and (optionally) patches Vencord whenever Discord updates.
Vencord doesn't automatically patch itself when Discord updates, so BetterVencordPatch offers a fix for that.

Features

• BetterVencordPatch can patch Vencord without any user interaction, unlike the official installer
  • This is due to modifications made to the installer source.
  • You can disable the auto-patch functionality in the installer while still being able to install Vencord without a UI.
• Patch Vencord (and optionally OpenAsar) automatically, even through Discord updates
• Notifications are used to communicate success, failure, and errors

Installing BetterVencordPatch

Download and run INSTALLER.exe or INSTALLER from the latest release, depending on your OS.
On macOS, you must run chmod +x to make the installer executable.
All the required files will be downloaded for you.

Installing from Source

You have much more control over your installation when installing from source, including the Discord branch which is patched and whether or not to send notifications on success.
All original requirements for building the official Vencord Installer apply here.
Run INSTALLER.py to install BetterVencordPatch from source.
To install from source, install Python 3.x and Go 1.25.x. The dependencies will automatically be installed.
