How to undo it

Before a change NyxBoost saves the previous values; "Revert" brings them back and removes those that did not exist before.

How NyxBoost checks the result

After applying, NyxBoost reads the values again and compares them with the expected ones. To see the real effect on your PC, use FPS Lab: it measures the same game before and after.
