Offline and online mode
You do not need to sign in to use FireClient.
Offline Mode#
Works with no account at all. You get singleplayer, servers that run in offline mode, and local skins you pick yourself.
Online Mode#
Signs you in with your Microsoft account. You need a real Minecraft Java Edition account. Use it to join servers that check accounts.
Switching#
Switching between the two never touches your worlds, profiles or mods. They live in the same place either way.
Where your login token goes#
The token is stored on your machine only, encrypted with the system store:
- Windows: DPAPI
- macOS: Keychain
- Linux:
libsecret
Warning: Never share access tokens or account files with anyone, including in Discord help channels.
