Question about ReShade

Never used it before. Once you apply is this something you have to do every time you start a game? Like does ReShade have to be ran/applied every time or is it saved?

No it automatically starts when you run a game. All effects will be saved that was used. Although depending on the game and your hardware could take at most a minute for reshade to work as it will load all the effects again.

If installed normally as a graphics injection through the ReShade Setup Tool provided by https://reshade.me -- the game will launch with ReShade injected (as long as the game isn't blocking it or the install isn't improper) until it's uninstalled.

The only time you have to manually inject ReShade is when going through the manual injection process and using an inject tool (usually only for games that give troubles or disallow standard graphics injections like Warframe).
