Safe mode

In safe mode Runesmith loads only the plugins that come with it. Use it when a plugin you installed keeps Runesmith from starting, or makes it crash.

Start in safe mode​

  • Run Help › Restart in Safe Mode.
  • Or start Runesmith with runesmith --safe-mode.

When Runesmith failed to start twice in a row, or closed unexpectedly within a minute of starting twice in a row, it starts in safe mode by itself and names the plugins that were loading. Stay in safe mode keeps it that way; Start normally restarts with every plugin.

Find the plugin​

  1. Open the plugin manager. A note at the top says Runesmith is in safe mode, and the plugins that are off show it.
  2. Turn off the plugin Runesmith named, or the one you installed or updated last.
  3. Click Restart normally.

If Runesmith starts, report the plugin as broken from its page; see Plugins from the hub.
