PaceHow to install Pacedex
Recommended: via the Microsoft Store it's 3 steps with zero Windows warnings. Prefer the direct installer (.exe)? The full path is right below.
Prefer direct? Get the installer (.exe) — that path is at the end of the page.
Install from the Microsoft Store
Open the Pacedex page on the Store and click Get. The package is signed by Microsoft — no Windows warnings — and updates are automatic.
Let the assistant turn on telemetry
On first run, Pacedex opens the connection assistant: if F1 is on this PC, it switches the game's telemetry on in 1 click; if you play on PlayStation/Xbox, it shows exactly what to enter on the console. (You can also do it manually in the game: Settings → Telemetry → UDP Telemetry on, port 20777.)
Hit the track and race! 🏎️
The dashboard opens in Pacedex's own window (PD icon on the taskbar). Jump into a session in the game: the assistant tells you the moment the first data arrives, and the overlay appears over the game by itself.

Works just as well — there's just one extra Windows warning along the way. Three steps; after installing, steps 2 and 3 above apply the same.
