Loader & activation - MintKeys

Complete Getting started first, then follow this guide for Predator CS2.

Download

Download the Predator loader. Extract the files to a local folder. Follow the loader’s activation prompts using the license delivered with your MintKeys order.

Before launching

Recheck the shared antivirus and conflicting anti-cheat setup.
Remove -vulkan from CS2’s launch options. The supplied guide spells this -vulcan; neither Vulkan launch option should be present.
Open Windows Settings → Time & Language → Date & Time, enable automatic time and select Sync now.
Update Steam and any other required launcher. Check manually for updates if needed.

If FACEIT or Vanguard services remain after closing their software, the guide lists these administrator Command Prompt commands:

sc stop faceit
sc stop vgc
sc stop vgk
