Installing Windows
- First, download the archive with the program. The latest version of the program can be downloaded here. We are looking for Windows 10, 11 or something like that name. windows-amd64.zip.
- An optional step. If you want to make sure that there was no substitution during the download and the archive was downloaded completely, then after downloading you can check the SHA-256 checksum. At the command prompt, enter the following command:
certutil -hashfile C:\Users\{user}\Downloads\gui-for-ffmpeg-{version}-windows-amd64.zip SHA256
Where {user} is your user's name.
Where {version} is the version of the downloaded program.
We get a set of numbers and letters.
They will have to match the file ...windows-amd64.zip.sha256, which can be downloaded in the same place where the program itself was downloaded.
The .sha256 file can be opened via notepad or any text editing program. The hash must match the one provided by the certutil utility. If everything matches, then there was no substitution during the download. And the entire archive was downloaded. - Unpack the archive.
- In the program folder, run the file gui-for-ffmpeg.exe.
