yuzu starts with the error “VCRUNTIME140_1.dll was not found”

Current versions of yuzu require the latest versions of Microsoft Visual C++. Please download and install the following dependency:

Go to Visual Studio 2015, 2017 and 2019, and select the link next to x64.

How do I get Games?

You are legally required to dump your games from your Nintendo Switch. To do so, please follow our in-depth Quickstart Guide.

Can I use a Mariko Switch/Red Box/HAC-001(-01) or a Switch Lite for the dumping process?

No, since the Mariko Switch and the Switch Lite are both patched from the fusée gelée RCM exploit. Currently, there is no widely accessible method that allows the dumping of system files and games required for yuzu from those consoles. To check if your Switch is hackable, visit https://damota.me/ssnc/checker and test your Switch’s serial number.

yuzu starts with the error “Missing Derivation Components”

yuzu requires console keys to play your games. Please follow our Quickstart Guide to dump these keys and system files from your Nintendo Switch.

These console keys (prod.keys/title.keys) need to be placed in the following directories:

You may need to create the following “keys” folder:

• Windows: C:UsersUSERNAMEAppDataRoamingyuzukeys
• Linux: /home/USERNAME/.local/share/yuzu/keys

NOTE: This yuzu directory can be quickly accessed by selecting file/open yuzu folder within the emulator

yuzu starts with the error “Unable to start application: Os { code: 2, kind: NotFound, message: “The system cannot find the file specified.” }'

This problem is usually caused by a false positive of your antivirus software, most commonly by Avast and AVG. These applications will often incorrectly detect yuzu as malicious software and delete the executable as a result.

You can confirm it is a false positive with an online scanner, such as VirusTotal if you wish.

To fix this, you’ll need to either disable or uninstall your antivirus software. Make sure to reboot if you choose to uninstall it.

Afterwards, follow the instructions below for yuzu will not update further or starts with a Qt platform error to delete any residual files of the failed installation.

yuzu will not update further or starts with a Qt platform error

• Close all instances of yuzu and any installer processes you may have running.
• Press Win+R, in the opened window type %localappdata% and press Enter.
• Select the yuzu folder and delete it. If it is being used by another process, please double-check that you do not have any yuzu related applications running.
• Launch the installer and install yuzu again.

yuzu closes when opening Configure

This problem may be caused by a corrupt configuration file.Press Win+R, type %appdata%yuzuconfig and delete the qt-config.ini file. Your global settings will be lost after doing this, reconfigure accordingly.

Alternatively, some screen recording applications use dubious methods to inject themselves into software, causing crashes. Some examples are Bandicam, Action and Screenrec. Uninstall the software if you have it installed.

We recommend using OBS Studio, Radeon ReLive, Nvidia ShadowPlay or Microsoft XBox Game Bar.

My game is Lagging and Dropping to Low Framerates

You are likely experiencing Shader Caching. Shaders are small programs running on a graphic card, responsible for rendering graphics like terrain, explosions, characters, etc. Since a PC cannot directly execute switch shaders, It first has to translate them to a format a PC can understand. This translation process is time-consuming and you’ll notice it in two ways:

• While playing, if yuzu needs to translate a new shader, the game will stutter. Loading into a game for the first time can give long freezes due to the number of shaders. As you keep playing, the amount of stuttering will decrease.

• When launching a game, the shader cache is loaded. To speed up this process there exists an additional “precompiled” cache. This cache may get reset every time you update yuzu or install a new GPU driver. The precompiled cache will then be compiled from scratch, causing a longer load time.

Currently, the Vulkan renderer does not have a disk shader cache. This means that subsequent game loads will require the building of shaders each time.

IMPORTANT: Since the cache stores parts of the game, we don't condone sharing or downloading these, since it is considered piracy

How do I use mods or cheats?

For a list of useful mods for your favorite games, check our database with Switch Mods

To add mods to a specific game, simply right click the game in yuzu’s games list, select Open Mod Data Location and structure your mod files similar to this example:

Mod directory/mod name/romfsorMod directory/mod name/exefs

To add cheats, structure your cheat file similar to this example:

Mod directory/cheat name/cheats

An example of a correctly structured mod directory can be seen below:

The mods provided on our Switch Mods page are already structured accordingly and only need to be extracted into the mod directory folder as is.

Once added to the correct mod directory, simply right click the game again, select properties and activate the installed mod. The same process can be followed in reverse for de-activating mods

How do I install game updates or DLC?

How do I use my GameCube controller adapter?

The GameCube adapter communicates with yuzu over the libusb protocol. This works natively on Linux, but requires the installation of a compatible driver on Windows using Zadig.

Zadig driver installation

Plug in the GameCube controller adapter if it hasn’t been already. Download and launch Zadig.If you’re using the Mayflash adapter, make sure you switch it to Wii U or Zadig won’t pick it up properly.

1. From the Options menu in Zadig, select List All Devices

2. In the pulldown menu, select WUP-028. Ensure that its USB ID is 057E 0337.

• If it does not appear in the list then try inserting the adapter (specifically its black USB cord) into another USB port.

3. On the right column, select WinUSB then click Replace Driver. Select Yes to modify the system driver.

When the notification that the driver is installed successfully is displayed, you can close Zadig and continue to configuring the controller with yuzu.

GameCube controller configuration

Ensure the adapter is plugged in prior to launching yuzu. Then follow the How do I set up my controls? instructions, selecting Gamecube controller X as the Input Device, where X is the port in which the controller is plugged into.
