Risks
An incomplete preflight can make later measurements incomparable. Stop when a dependency or recovery prerequisite is unavailable.
Compatibility
Preparation applies to Windows 10 and Windows 11; games, anti-cheat systems, and devices can impose narrower boundaries.
Recovery
Cancel preparation to return to the last verified local state. No remote authority is required.
Technical detail
Desktop preparation routes keep game and session identifiers bounded and reject unknown navigation parameters.
