🎯 Tips & Tricks
Since it's an older mod, check if your game version is patched to the latest — if terminals break, you'll know why.
If you use a mod manager like Vortex or MO2, install it through there to keep track of it easily.
Pair it with other QoL mods like faster terminal animations for a smoother experience.

⚠️ Common Mistakes
- Installing multiple mods that modify the same files without checking compatibility
👍 Pros
- Massive community approval (65,608 endorsements) — this is one of the most trusted QoL mods out there.
- Saves you from the tedious guesswork in hacking terminals, especially on higher difficulties where the minigame gets brutal.
- Lightweight and simple — does exactly what it says with no bloat or extra features to fiddle with.
👎 Cons
- Last updated in 2015 — might not be compatible with the latest Fallout 4 updates or next-gen patches, so test it before relying on it.
- Removes the challenge entirely — if you actually enjoy the hacking minigame, this mod will make it pointless.
- No documentation or install instructions provided by the author, though it's likely a simple drop-in file.
