At present, the only instructions for installing openocd are in the MacOS section, and recommend building from source

Recently, the forum had brought up the xpack distribution of openocd which I have tested on windows so far and it works with the STM32H750.

Installation instructions are here:
https://xpack.github.io/openocd/install/

It'd be worth refining each OSes section, or adding a dedicated "Debug Tools" section to Wiki recommending to get openocd from here.

I updated Wiki page with instructions how to build OpenOCD with Homebrew from git:

I also updated installation of gcc-arm-embedded to more convenient version, it can be added as exception for security checks without disabling/re-enabling security checks for each build:
