Installation on Windows

Installer

The recommended way to install LibrePCB is to use the installer.

Just download and run librepcb-installer-1.2.0-windows-x86_64.exe. Afterwards you’ll find LibrePCB in your start menu.

Unfortunately we’re not able yet to sign our Windows installer (it’s quite expensive to do it). Therefore Windows might warn that the publisher of the installer is unknown. This is normal for binaries without paying for a signature, therefore just click on More info and then Run anyway to skip the warning.

For automated (unattended) installation, please check out the command-line parameters of the Inno Setup framework here (uninstall):

librepcb-installer-1.2.0-windows-x86_64.exe /VERYSILENT /SUPPRESSMSGBOXES

Portable Package

Alternatively you could run LibrePCB without installing it. But then you don’t get start menu entries and LibrePCB file extensions won’t be registered so you can’t open LibrePCB projects with a double-click in the file manager.

Download and extract librepcb-1.2.0-windows-x86_64.zip, then run the contained file bin\librepcb.exe.
