# Tether Installation Instructions for Windows
## Quick Install (Recommended)
1. Download the Tether installer (.msi file) from the release
2. Double-click the .msi file to run the installer
3. Follow the installation wizard
4. Launch Tether from the Start Menu or Desktop shortcut
## Portable Install
1. Download the Tether portable (.exe file) from the release
2. Run the .exe file directly - no installation required
3. The app will create a data folder in the same directory
## Important: Windows Permissions
After installation, you may need to grant permissions for Tether to work properly:
1. **Notifications**: Windows should automatically prompt you to allow notifications
2. **Run at Startup** (optional):
- Open Settings > Apps > Startup
- Find Tether and toggle it on
3. **Windows Defender**: If Windows Defender blocks the app:
- Go to Windows Security > Virus & threat protection
- Click "Manage settings" under Virus & threat protection settings
- Add an exclusion for the Tether installation folder
The app is unsigned, so Windows may show security warnings. Click "More info" then "Run anyway" to proceed.

## Installation Instructions
### 🪟 Windows Installation
**Quick Install (Recommended):**
1. Download `Tether-v${{ steps.get_version.outputs.VERSION }}-windows.zip`
2. Extract the zip file
3. Run the `.msi` installer file
4. Follow the installation wizard
5. Launch Tether from Start Menu or Desktop shortcut
**Portable Version:**
1. Download `Tether-v${{ steps.get_version.outputs.VERSION }}-windows.zip`
2. Extract and run the `.exe` file directly (no installation needed)
**Windows Security Notes:**
- Windows may show security warnings (app is unsigned)
- Click "More info" → "Run anyway" to proceed
- If Windows Defender blocks it: Add Tether folder to exclusions in Windows Security
**Permissions Setup:**
- **Notifications**: Windows will prompt automatically
- **Startup**: Go to Settings > Apps > Startup to enable auto-start
- **Accessibility**: No special permissions needed on Windows
---
### 🍎 macOS Installation
**Recommended Installation (via Terminal):**
1. Download `Tether-v${{ steps.get_version.outputs.VERSION }}-mac.zip`
2. Extract the zip file
3. Open **Terminal** (Cmd + Space, type "Terminal")
4. Navigate to extracted folder:
```bash
cd ~/Downloads/Tether-v${{ steps.get_version.outputs.VERSION }}-mac
```
5. Make the install script executable:
```bash
chmod +x install-tether.sh
```
6. Run the install script:
```bash
./install-tether.sh
```
This will automatically remove macOS quarantine flags, move the app to your Applications folder, and set the correct permissions.
7. Launch **Tether** from your **Applications** folder.
---
**Alternate Installation (Manual):**
1. Download and extract the zip file.
2. Open Terminal and run:
```bash
xattr -cr Tether.app
```
(This removes macOS quarantine flags on unsigned apps.)
3. Move `Tether.app` to your **Applications** folder.
4. Launch it from Applications.
---
**If you get a warning when launching:**
- Right-click `Tether.app` → Select **"Open"**, then click **"Open"** again in the warning prompt.
- Or go to **System Settings** → **Privacy & Security** → **General** → Click **"Open Anyway"**.
---
**Note:** Both versions are unsigned, which triggers security warnings. Follow the platform-specific steps above to bypass these safely.
