What is AddSon?
A mod is an extra thing for a game that other people have made — for example a new building, a new animal or new colours for the blocks.
AddSon finds the secret folder where your game keeps its mods, and puts the mod file in the right place. You only have to press one button: "Add a mod".
In Minecraft you can even build your very own pack — and with AI Texture Studio you can type a wish and have it turned into a real game texture!
Games AddSon can help with
AddSon finds your games all by itself — both from Steam and Game Pass. You don't have to hunt for folders. There's also a built-in mod browser, so you can look for new mods together with a grown-up.
How to use it
Download
Press the big button and download the zip file.
Unzip
Right-click the file and choose Extract All. You'll get a folder called AddSon.
Start
Open the folder and double-click Start AddSon. A friendly window opens!
You can also put the whole AddSon folder on a USB stick and bring it to a friend's house. It works on every Windows 11 computer — without installing anything.

Is it safe?
- AddSon never touches your saved games. Your worlds and your progress are completely safe.
- It does not change how you win — it only adds extra things, mostly looks.
- AddSon runs on your own computer. Nothing gets installed, and AddSon itself needs no account. Only the mod browser (your NexusMods account) and the "texture from words" painter talk to the internet.
- You download mods yourself from safe places — preferably together with a grown-up.
