Installation Instructions

IMPORTANT!

  • Make sure python is installed on your system before doing anything else and available via path variable (python for windows and python3 for mac): https://www.python.org/downloads/
  • Refer to the README.MD file for more information on setting up permissions

🪟 Windows Installation

Quick Install (Recommended):

  1. Download Tether-v0.3.4-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-v0.3.4-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-v0.3.4-mac.zip
  2. Extract the zip file
  3. Open Terminal (Cmd + Space, type "Terminal")
  4. Navigate to extracted folder:
cd ~/Downloads/Tether-v0.3.4-mac
  1. Make the install script executable:
chmod +x install-tether.sh
  1. Run the install script:
./install-tether.sh

This will automatically remove macOS quarantine flags, move the app to your Applications folder, and set the correct permissions.

  1. Launch Tether from your Applications folder.

Alternate Installation (Manual):

  1. Download and extract the zip file.
  2. Open Terminal and run:
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 SettingsPrivacy & SecurityGeneral → Click "Open Anyway".

Note: Both versions are unsigned, which triggers security warnings. Follow the platform-specific steps above to bypass these safely.
