Usage

Download and install the .NET 6 Desktop Runtime x64. It is very important that you download the 64-bit Desktop runtime, otherwise the launcher won't start correctly. For convenience you can use the direct download link but it might point to an older version as this readme is not regularly revised.
Download and run the launcher executable from Github releases.
Use the setup dialog and/or profile wizard to setup the paths for all toolkits you wish to use.
