Forever

Forever is a game preservation tool that helps you archive and protect your legally owned games for the long term. It functions as an installer and installer generator, allowing you to create and install complete, self-contained backups of your downloaded games with just a few clicks.
The tool automatically removes Roosens protection when a valid decryption key is provided (either during installer creation or at runtime). It also performs a security scan for any unsigned executables or DLL files, helping ensure the integrity and safety of your preserved archives by verifying that all code is properly signed by trusted publishers.
Forever puts you in control of your personal game library, enabling true long-term preservation without relying on online stores or fragile downloads. It only handles Roosens DRM and does not remove any other forms of DRM.

  • Forever is intended exclusively for creating and installing personal backups of games that you legally own.
  • Distribution of installers created with this tool that contain copyrighted material is not allowed because that is ILLEGAL.
  • We support game preservation only for titles you have lawfully acquired. We do not support or condone piracy.
  • This software is released under the WTFPL – Version 2.

Roosens Protection Removal Tool

When you legally purchase a game, you should truly own it, not just have temporary access that can vanish if servers go offline or companies disappear.
Once the agreed protection period with the publisher ends, every legitimate buyer deserves to:

  • Play the game without ever requiring a response from our servers
  • Back it up and preserve it for future generations
  • Run it on future operating systems
  • Load the game as fast as possible
Publishing this official removal tool and decryption keys is our way of respecting your ownership and supporting long-term game preservation.

Always download it here, never from third-party sites.
