Troubleshooting
The problems that actually come up, in the order they come up, with the fix that works most often first.
SmartScreen blocks the installer
Windows shows "Windows protected your PC" on a freshly released build. This is SmartScreen saying it hasn't seen this exact file often enough yet — a reputation score, not a verdict about the file. Every new release starts from zero and the warning fades as more people install it.
Click More info, then Run anyway. Before you do, make sure the file came from noxutft.com/download and not a mirror — that is the only check that actually protects you.
The overlay doesn't appear in game
Work down this list; it's ordered by how often each one is the answer.
- Switch League out of exclusive fullscreen. Use Borderless or Windowed in the game's video settings. Exclusive fullscreen can stop any overlay from drawing, and this is the cause more often than everything else combined.
- Start NoxuTFT before or during the game, not after the match has begun — it attaches to the League window when it finds it.
- Run NoxuTFT as administrator if League is running elevated. A non-elevated app cannot draw over an elevated window.
- Check a second screen or scaling. Moving League between monitors, or changing display scaling mid-session, can leave the overlay positioned against the old geometry. Restart the app to re-attach.
The licence won't activate
- Use the credentials from your purchase email — the username is the one shown on the checkout page when the payment confirmed, not your League name and not your Discord name.
- Paid by crypto and nothing arrived? The payment is on record even if the email didn't reach you. Write to support@noxutft.com with the address you paid from.
- Changed your password recently? The app keeps the old session until you sign out; sign out and back in.
Auto-buy isn't buying
- It's off by default. Check the toggle at the right end of the auto-buy bar — see automation.
- Check the star level. A greyed-out champion means you already have it at the level you asked for, so buying has stopped on purpose.
- Check the bar isn't empty. Picking a comp fills it; a custom comp only fills it once saved.
The app won't update
NoxuTFT checks on every start and asks before updating — it never installs silently. If the prompt fails, download the current installer from the download page and run it over your existing install; your settings and saved comps are kept.
Uninstalling cleanly
Settings → Apps → NoxuTFT → Uninstall. Every file, setting and registry entry is removed. There's no background service and no updater left behind.
Still stuck
Ask on Discord — it's the fastest route and someone has usually hit the same thing. For anything involving a payment or an account, email support@noxutft.com so there's a written trail.
Whichever route you take, say which version you're on (it's in the top-left corner of the app), what Windows build, and whether League is in borderless or fullscreen. That's usually enough to answer without a back and forth.
