Get it
Both formats are on GitHub Releases. The site does not select or serve a version-specific binary.
- Installer (recommended): the file ending in
-setup.exe. Installs just for you with no admin, adds a Start menu shortcut, and removes cleanly from Add or Remove Programs. - Portable ZIP: the file ending in
.zip. No install, good for a locked-down PC or a USB stick. Keep the folder together.
The apps are not signed, so Windows SmartScreen may warn the first time you run one. Choose More info, then Run anyway.
