Encrypted vault
Credentials are encrypted on disk with AES-256-GCM, keyed from your master password. Nothing is sent to a server.
AXIAM
ENCRYPTED ACCOUNT LAUNCHER
Unlock your accounts.
An encrypted desktop vault for your Guild Wars 2 accounts. One master password, one-click Steam launches, and zero credentials in the cloud — ever.
// KEY FEATURES
Multi-account workflow
Add, edit, and organize as many GW2 accounts as you need. Each one keeps its own custom launch arguments.
One-click launch
Steam integration with managed arguments. Pick an account, hit launch, the game opens — no retyping args every session.
Per-account status
Running, launching, stopping — every account shows live state, so you always know which client is where.
Auto-updates & What's New
Animated update indicator and in-app restart. After updating, a What's New screen shows the release notes.
Optional GW2 API key
Drop in a per-account API key and AxiAM resolves account metadata in the UI — character names, world, last-active — so you can tell vaults apart at a glance. The key is encrypted alongside the rest.
// PROCEDURE
-
Set a master password
First launch only. The master password is never stored — it's the only way into the vault.
-
Add your accounts
Drop in credentials and custom launch args. Everything is encrypted at rest with
AES-256-GCM. -
Launch and play
Click an account, AxiAM hands off to Steam with your saved arguments, and you're in.
// SECURITY MODEL
AES-256-GCM
Authenticated encryption via Node's crypto module. Every credential is sealed with an integrity tag — tampering is detectable.
Derived from your master password
The encryption key is derived at runtime from the password you type. AxiAM does not store it, cache it across reboots, or transmit it.
You choose the prompt rate
Re-prompt for the master password every launch, every session, or after a timeout. Match the vault to how paranoid your week is.
No server. No telemetry.
There is no AxiAM server. Credentials live on your machine and nowhere else. Updates come from GitHub Releases over HTTPS.

// FAQ
I forgot my master password. Can I recover my accounts?
No. The master password is never stored and cannot be recovered. That's the whole point — there is no back door. You'll need to reset app data and re-add your accounts.
Does AxiAM store my credentials online?
No. All credentials are encrypted and stored locally on your machine. Nothing is transmitted to any server. There is no AxiAM server.
Can I use AxiAM on Linux?
Yes. Point the GW2 path to a wrapper script that launches the game through Proton/Wine. The rest of the app works natively.
The app says an update is available but nothing happens.
Check your internet connection and firewall. Updates are downloaded from GitHub Releases. If it persists, grab the latest installer manually from the releases page.
Why does Windows SmartScreen warn me about the installer?
Unsigned builds trigger SmartScreen warnings. Official releases are code-signed to avoid this. If you built from source without a signing certificate, this is expected.
Is it free?
Yes. MIT licensed, free forever. No paid tier.
