Most up-to-date Windows machines already have it; if yours doesn't, open the **Install Scripts** folder sitting next to `RemSound.exe` and double-click **Install .NET for RemSound.cmd**. It fetches and installs it for you (using winget, the Windows package manager), and then RemSound will start. There's a `.ps1` version in the same folder for PowerShell users. If you'd rather do it by hand, the script opens Microsoft's download page, where you pick “.NET Desktop Runtime” for “x64”. > **If RemSound won't start** — if Windows says it needs “.NET” — RemSound runs on the **Microsoft .NET 10 Desktop Runtime**.
