Windows 11 ships with dozens of finished features that stay switched off until you flip them on yourself. ViveTool, the open-source command-line utility that toggles Microsoft’s internal feature flags, is how you get early access to a redesigned Start menu, new taskbar controls, refreshed Settings pages, and more, all without waiting for Microsoft to roll them out to your build.

How to redeem ViveTool codes in Windows 11

ViveTool doesn’t have a menu or a text box where you paste a code. You run it from the command line, and it writes the feature ID directly into your system’s feature-configuration database.

Download ViveTool and extract the files into a folder you can find easily, such as a folder on your desktop.
Open Command Prompt or PowerShell as Administrator, then navigate to the folder where you extracted ViveTool using the cd command.
Type the enable command followed by the feature ID (or comma-separated IDs) from the list above, then press Enter.
vivetool /enable /id:61161244
Restart your PC. Once Windows reboots, check the area tied to that feature ID, whether it’s the Start menu, the taskbar, or a specific Settings page, to confirm the change appears. If the feature doesn’t show up, your current Windows 11 build may be older than what that ID requires.

How to find new Windows 11 ViveTool codes

Microsoft doesn’t publish a list of feature IDs anywhere in Windows 11 itself. New codes tend to surface alongside cumulative updates and Windows Insider builds, since each build often ships with new features sitting dormant behind a flag before Microsoft turns them on by default. If you’re chasing the newest features, keeping your PC updated to the latest cumulative update gives you access to the freshest set of IDs to try with ViveTool.

Is ViveTool free to use?

Yes. ViveTool is free, open-source software, and enabling a feature ID doesn’t cost anything beyond whatever Windows update the feature is tied to.

Why didn’t my code work?

Feature IDs are usually tied to a minimum Windows 11 build number. If your PC is running an older build than the one a feature shipped in, enabling the ID won’t make it appear, so installing the latest cumulative update first is worth checking before you try again.

Some of the entries above bundle several IDs together, like the Administrator Protection set or the Start menu resize set, because Microsoft split that one feature across multiple flags. Enable every ID in the group at once rather than one at a time, since leaving one out can stop the feature from fully activating.
