What this (arcwin10.ps1) does:
- Downloads and installs required fonts.
- Downloads Arc.
- Extracts Arc, deletes files and folders related to Windows 11.
- Replaces minimum version required.
- Installs Arc.
Download and install the latest Windows App SDK from here: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/apps/windows-app-sdk/downloads
Enable Developer Mode (temporarily, once the app is installed you can turn it off).
- Open Settings: Press Win + I to open the Settings app.
- Update & Security: Navigate to Update & Security > For developers.
- Developer Mode: Select the "Developer Mode" radio button to enable Developer Mode. You might need to confirm and possibly wait for additional components to install.
Download both arcwin10.ps1 & arcwin10.bat to the same directory. Right click and run arcwin10.bat as Administrator.
Two directories will be created: "arctemp" (will be deleted after installation) and "Arc" (where Arc will live). The "Arc" directory should only be deleted if you are upgrading. You may proceed to disable Developer Mode.
Note: The auto updater in Arc does not work in Windows 10. You will need to re-enable Developer Mode, delete the "Arc" directory, and re-run arcwin10.bat as Administrator to update it.
