Game Backup Monitor (GBM) for Windows is a free, open-source utility designed to track changes made to your game installations. It primarily serves as a watchdog, alerting you if a game[SQ]s files are modified unexpectedly. This is especially useful for :

*

Detecting unauthorized changes:

This could be malicious software altering game files, or even a poorly behaved game patching itself in a way that breaks compatibility or causes problems.

*

Identifying accidental deletions or modifications:

It can help you pinpoint when and what caused a game to stop working.

*

Tracking game installations:

Provides a log of changes and allows you to monitor the integrity of your game files over time.

In essence, it[SQ]s a security and monitoring tool for your installed games, offering an early warning system for potential problems. It doesn[SQ]t back up games itself; rather, it monitors their existing backups or installations for changes.
