Then fully close Discord from your taskbar or task manager, and restart it. Vencord should be injected - you can check this by looking for the Vencord section in Discord settings.
## Updating Vencord
If you're using Discord already, go into the `Updater` tab in settings.
Sometimes it may be neccessary to manually update if the GUI updater fails.
To pull latest changes:
```shell
git pull
```
If this fails, you likely need to reset your local changes to vencord to resolve merge errors:
> :exclamation: This command will remove any local changes you've made to vencord. Make sure you back up if you made any code changes you don't want to lose!
Now follow the instructions at [Manual Patching](#manual-patching)
### On MacOS
Open finder and go to your Applications folder. Right-Click on the Discord application you want to patch, and view contents.
Go to the `Contents/Resources` folder.
Now follow the instructions at [Manual Patching](#manual-patching)
### Manual Patching
> :exclamation: If using Flatpak on linux, go to the folder that contains the `app.asar` file, and skip to where we create the `app` folder below.
> :exclamation: On Linux/MacOS, there's a chance there won't be an `app-<number>` folder, but there probably is a `resources` folder, so keep reading :)
Inside there, look for the `app-<number>` folders. If you have multiple, use the highest number. If that doesn't work, do it for the rest of the `app-<number>` folders.
Inside there, go to the `resources` folder. There should be a file called `app.asar`. If there isn't, look at a different `app-<number>` folder instead.
Make a new folder in `resources` called `app`. In here, we will make two files:
`package.json` and `index.js`
In `index.js`:
> :exclamation: Replace the path in the first line with the path to `patcher.js` in your vencord dist folder.
> On Windows, you can get this by shift-rightclicking the patcher.js file and selecting "copy as path"
