The Overwolf Simple IO Plugin
A very useful plugin that we've developed ourselves is the Simple IO Plugin. This plugin allows your app to perform different filesystem I/O operations not available otherwise.
You can read more about the functions of the simple-io-plugin in the Simple I/O GitHub repository.

- Read a game’s log file or files and even “stream” the log file, line-by-line, to your app.
- Create your own persistent log file on the local hard drive.

Unblock Dll's
When you download foreign DLL files using a browser, Windows automatically marks it as unsafe. You can mark the file as safe by checking the 'Unblock' box found in the file's properties.
