Rebuild the solution and you should be good to go.
# Installation
Copy all **files** out of the relevant build directories, as well as, "*TargetConfig.ini*" and the relevant SFML, ViGEmUM and QT .dll-files in a separate directory.
To launch games without doubled overlays, GloSC_GameLauncher has to run at boot.
If you didn't use the installer, just place the reg-entry for the autostart
Be careful that the right executable is running, as there can only ever be one Instance of "GloSC_GameLauncher" running.
Copy all **files** out of the relevant build directories, as well as, "*TargetConfig.ini*" and the relevant SFML and QT .dll-files in a separate directory.
Afterwards create your shortcuts with GloSC and you are ready to go.
### Notes:
The GloSC_GameLauncher must be running from that directory, as Admin, to make double sure Steam does get unhooked after closing a shortcut

**GloSC consists of:**
* A main application ("GloSC") allowing you to create and configure new shortcuts or "SteamTargets" and automatically add them to Steam
* The "GloSC-GameLauncher" which can launch Win32 and UWP games and mainly exists to work around dual overlays
* The "SteamTarget" which does most of the magic - Showing the overlay to the user as well as talking to the ViGEm-driver for system wide Controller emulation
