How to install (as an end-user)

Prerequisite

  • You need to update to Fall Creators Update or later.

Chocolatey package manager installation

  • Install Chocolatey
  • From an elevated/admin shell, execute choco install fluent-terminal

Bundled install script

  • Download and extract the latest release.
  • If not already present, download Install.ps1 to the extracted directory.
  • Right-click on Install.ps1, and choose "Run with Powershell".
  • The installer script will walk you through the rest of the process.

Manual install

  • Download the latest release
  • Enable sideloading apps
    • Alternatively, enable developer mode if you plan to do UWP app development. For most users that do not intend to do UWP app development, developer mode will not be necessary.
  • Install the *.cer file into Local Machine -> Trusted Root Certification Authorities
    • This will require administrator elevation. If you installed the certificate and did not have to elevate, you likely installed it into an incorrect certificate store.

Right-Click then choose Install Certificate

Install Certificate into Local Machine

  • double click the *.appxbundle
  • Optional: Install Context menu integration from here
