## Run
|
||||
|
||||
Download the portable Windows x64 package from this repository's Releases page,
|
||||
extract it, and run `Orbit.exe`. No installer or separate .NET runtime
|
||||
is required. Windows 10 or Windows 11, 64-bit.
|
||||
Choose a Windows x64 download from [Releases](https://github.com/donishki/orbit/releases/latest):
|
||||
|
||||
- **Orbit-Setup-win-x64.exe**: installs Orbit for your Windows account, adds a Start menu shortcut, and offers an optional desktop shortcut. Remove it through Windows Settings > Apps.
|
||||
- **Orbit-Portable-win-x64.zip**: extract and run `Orbit.exe`, without installing.
|
||||
|
||||
Both include .NET and support 64-bit Windows 10 or Windows 11. The installer defaults to `%LOCALAPPDATA%\Programs\Orbit`, requires no administrator password, and preserves links and settings during upgrades and uninstall. Installed and portable copies share the same settings for your account.

### Build the installer
|
||||
|
||||
Install Inno Setup 7, then run:
|
||||
|
||||
```powershell
|
||||
./installer/Build-Installer.ps1
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Use `-IsccPath` for a compiler installed elsewhere. The output is
|
||||
`release/Orbit-Setup-win-x64.exe`. The installer bundles the runtime as normal
|
||||
files so the installed app does not need to extract it on launch.
