DLSS 5 One Click (DLSS5oneclick): Setup, Routes and Safety

What is DLSS5oneclick?

One button that sets up DLSS 5 in a DirectX 11 or 12 game, with or without the game’s own DLSS. DLSS5oneclick is by faisalkindi, licensed under MIT and published at github.com/faisalkindi/DLSS5oneclick. It is a single native Windows exe of about 17 MB, written in Rust, with no runtime to install. Everything it installs is downloaded from the projects that made it, including what its README calls the leaked DLSS 5 neural-rendering build. Releases are frequent.

Facts from each project's README, checked 2026-10-05. Release versions from the automated check on Nov 11, 2026, 16:15 UTC.

How do I install DLSS 5 with it?

1. Download dlss5oneclick.exe from the Releases page and compare its SHA-256 with the value in the release notes (certutil -hashfile dlss5oneclick.exe SHA256), or use the download verifier.
2. Run it. The Games page lists games from Steam, Epic Games, GOG, Xbox / Game Pass, the EA app and Ubisoft Connect; Add a folder or Add a game covers the rest.
3. Click a game to open its Setup page. It shows the setup it will use and why; press Install DLSS 5.
4. In the game, press Home to open ReShade, go to Add-ons, open DLSS 5 Neural Rendering and enable it. F6 switches DLSS 5 off and on. In games with their own DLSS, ReShade’s “No effect files found” message is expected.

Keep the game’s MSAA and SSAA off. If DLSS 5 does not show, press Not working? Try the next setup.

What does it install?

It picks one of two paths from what is in the game’s folder:

For a 64-bit game with DLSS it tries, in order: the newest RenoDX DLSS 5 add-on (release candidates included), ShortFuse’s DLSS add-on, the add-on at 4.70, the add-on at 4.55, and the OptiScaler engine. In games with their own DLSS it also writes cheaper add-on settings once, so the neural pass runs a single time before DLSS upscales. Cyberpunk 2077 starts on the OptiScaler engine, because on the ReShade route the frame rate dropped there while the picture stayed the same.

Other cases: DirectX 9 games go through dgVoodoo2, 32-bit games run on the Feeder path in beta, Vulkan games work only on the OptiScaler engine and only with their own DLSS, and RE Engine games get REFramework loaded first.

Which cards does it support?

It refuses non-NVIDIA cards and NVIDIA cards without tensor cores (GTX, GT, MX) before it installs anything. On RTX cards it installs a model build with patched binaries for RTX 40 and an FP16 path for RTX 20 and 30, and its README describes the cost as full speed on RTX 50, moderate on RTX 40 and heavy on RTX 20 and 30. On laptops with two GPUs, it sets Windows to start the game on the NVIDIA card. More per card: DLSS 5 by GPU.

Is DLSS5oneclick safe?

Use only the official exe, checked against its hash, and only in single-player games.

• Source: only its GitHub Releases page and the Nexus Mods page it links. Its README warns that “DLSS 5 manager/one-click” executables from other repositories, videos or websites are not this tool, and that one of them is a 500 MB binary with no source. How to spot fake downloads.
• Not code-signed. Expect a SmartScreen “unknown publisher” prompt, and Defender may quarantine the exe or the files it places. The developer suggests excluding the game folder; we suggest restoring only files whose source you know (how to judge an alert).
• What it installs: the DLSS 5 add-on and its model are a leaked, closed-source build from a community mirror, which the tool says it cannot vouch for.
• Anti-cheat: it refuses games with Easy Anti-Cheat, BattlEye, GameGuard, EA Javelin or ACE files, and Overwatch, Valorant and League of Legends by name. A box lets you install anyway where the anti-cheat is really off; never take such an install online. The risk game by game.

How do I undo it?

Remove on the game’s Setup page takes out what the tool placed, and only that; Remove incl. ReShade also takes ReShade out. Switching to another engine removes the old one first, and a RenoDX HDR mod that was there goes back in. From the command line, dlss5oneclick.exe "C:\Games\Foo" --remove does the same.

DLSS5oneclick or DLSS 5 Swapper?

Choose DLSS5oneclick for automatic setup in DirectX 11 and 12 games, a fallback list when a setup fails, and a tool that refuses anti-cheat games instead of only warning. Choose DLSS 5 Swapper for one app with bundled components, an in-game F8 panel and Restore originals. See the tool comparison, and the status page for every tool’s latest version.
