Why BetterCurseForge?

CurseForge is the premier platform for Minecraft modpacks, World of Warcraft addons, and game mods, but the official desktop app is burdened with intrusive ad containers, locked premium themes, and heavy telemetry.

BetterCurseForge restores a clean, fast, and customizable experience:

  • Seamless Native UI: Client themes appear natively under Settings -> Themes alongside official themes, complete with real-time live hover previews.
  • Unlocked Premium Themes: Access all native CurseForge Premium themes (Pixelforge, Lifeforge, Fantasyforge, Spookyforge) without a subscription.
  • Zero-Ad Layouts: Ad columns and sidebars are eliminated from the layout, letting modpack grids expand to fill your entire display.
  • Automated Update Resistance: Never worry about CurseForge updates breaking your setup—Auto-Repatch automatically detects updates and re-applies the patch in seconds.
  • One-Click Reversible: Easily unpatch anytime via the GUI or BetterCurseForge.exe unpatch to restore vanilla CurseForge.
