How to set Steam to always choose the same launch option for a game?
Posted On: February 5, 2023

Sometimes when you launch a game you have to choose between different launch options:.


Is it possible to configure Steam so the startup window is skipped and a specific options is chosen?


I my case I want Kerbal Space Program to always launch in 64-bit mode, otherwise the game crashes (because of mods).


NOTE: I mentioned Kerbal Space Program as an example, but the answer should be valid for any Steam game.


Question from user TheBird956 at gaming.stackexchange.com.


Answer:

A recent update just made it possible to do precisely this!.


When you launch a game that has multiple launch options, the window now displays a checkbox always to use the selected option.


The selected option can also be changed by going to the game's properties and modifying the "Launch options" dropdown field.
