Choose an import folder

Point DemoVault at a folder containing completed .dem files. Avoid active game download folders because a file may be discovered before Steam finishes writing it.

Parser status

Queued means the file is waiting for a parser worker. Parsed means the match and event index completed. Unsupported usually means the demo uses a newer format or the file is incomplete; retain the original file and check the current known issues before retrying.
