Gaming Toggles for PC

Seven Windows gaming controls, one press away.

Gaming Toggles for PC puts Xbox, mouse, power and graphics controls on Stream Deck. Add only the actions you need to your own profile.

Five Core actions

Toggle Game Mode — turn Windows Game Mode on or off.

Controller opens Game Bar — allow or prevent the controller's Xbox button from opening Game Bar.

Enter / exit Xbox Mode — send Win+F11 for the Xbox full-screen experience. Requires compatible Windows 11 and GamingHomeApp configured. This is a command, not an ON/OFF indicator.

Enhance pointer precision — toggle Windows mouse acceleration while preserving your custom mouse thresholds.

Power plan A / B — choose two installed power plans in the Property Inspector and switch between them. The key reports A, B or OTHER; it never creates, edits or deletes plans.

Two experimental Labs actions

Auto HDR — toggle the current-user Auto HDR preference.

Windowed game optimizations — toggle the current-user windowed-game optimization preference.

Labs is experimental: these preferences do not have a stable public Microsoft setter. Windows or GPU updates may affect them. Unknown settings are preserved and unexpected formats are not overwritten. Game, display and hardware compatibility still apply; these controls do not guarantee HDR support or higher frame rates.

Feedback you can trust

Stateful actions re-read Windows after changes and refresh every 2.5 seconds. Xbox Mode remains a stateless shortcut. On/off artwork differs in brightness and shape, while power plans have distinct A/B/OTHER indicators.

Requirements and privacy

Windows 11 and Stream Deck 7.1 or later. No administrator rights. Uses current-user preferences, Windows APIs and existing power plans. No telemetry or external service is required; the plugin communicates locally with Stream Deck.

English and Spanish follow your Stream Deck language. Open source under the MIT license, published by MAECLY and authored by Miguel Esparza. Contributions are welcome.

Gaming Toggles for PC 2.1.0

Five new actions—seven controls in total.

Enter / exit Xbox Mode with Win+F11 on compatible Windows 11 systems with GamingHomeApp configured. No fabricated ON/OFF state.

Toggle enhanced pointer precision while preserving custom mouse thresholds.

Switch between two existing power plans selected in the bilingual Property Inspector. The key shows A, B, or OTHER.

[Labs] Auto HDR and [Labs] Windowed game optimizations: experimental, current-user graphics preferences. Unknown settings are preserved; unexpected formats are not overwritten. Hardware and game support still apply.

Game Mode and Controller opens Game Bar remain available. Stateful actions confirm changes by re-reading Windows and refreshing every 2.5 seconds. New actions include high-contrast artwork and English/Spanish labels.

No administrator rights, no telemetry, and no creation, editing, or deletion of power plans. Unit, integration, functional, permission, error-handling, and regression coverage has been expanded.

Upgrading from 2.0.0: the plugin ID remains com.maecly.gamingtoggles. Existing 2.0.0 actions keep their IDs; no plugin-ID migration is required. Add the new actions to your profile and configure two installed power plans before using Power Plan A/B.
