🔍 Global Search

System Checker integrates with Playnite's global search feature (accessible via Ctrl+F or the search bar), allowing you to quickly find games based on system requirements compatibility.

Important: Search parameters are filters that complement the name search. When you use parameters, the plugin first filters by game name, then applies the additional filters.

For example:

  • rpg -min → Finds games with "rpg" in their name AND that meet minimum requirements
  • -min → Finds all games that meet minimum requirements (no name filter)

You can use the following parameters to filter games:

Parameter Description
-min Games that meet minimum requirements
-rec Games that meet recommended requirements
-any Games that meet either minimum or recommended requirements
-np Games with no playtime (never played)
-fav Filter by favorite games only
-stores= Filter by specific stores (comma-separated)
-status= Filter by completion status (comma-separated)

Note: All search filters can be combined. The game name search is case-insensitive.
