{% include callout.html content=“Windows ≥ 10<br/> Boost ≥ 1.78<br/> MySQL ≥ 5.7.0 (Recommended version: ≥ 8.0)<br/> OpenSSL ≥ 3.0.x (Ver. 3.1 and above are not supported.)<br/> CMake ≥ 3.16<br/> MS Visual Studio (Community) ≥ 17 (2022) (Desktop) (No preview)” type=“info” %}

    1. Download the standalone installer
      • During Git installation - Adjust your PATH environment. Pick “Git from the command line and also from 3rd-party software”.
    1. Download the installer and follow the steps to set it up.
  1. Install the compiler / IDE Visual Studio Community 2022 (ver 17)

You will need to install the C++ compiler.

To do this, select **Desktop development for C++** under **Workloads -> Desktop & Mobile**.

- [[https://dev.mysql.com/downloads/mysql/8.0.html|MySQL Server Community Edition]]
{% include note.html content="MySQL ≥ 8.0 is recommended. Version 5.7 is deprecated and will soon not be supported." %}
  - Download the Windows MSI Installer.
  - Scroll down to the bottom and click on "No thanks, just take me to the downloads!"
  - When the installation is almost done, make sure "Launch the MySQL Instance Configuration Wizard" is checked, then click "Finish".
  - When the MySQL Instance Configuration Wizard launches, most default options are fine, but remember the username and password you use (root // whatever). You will need them to log into your chosen database management tool (below) in order to import SQL files later.
  - To test if MySQL is set up correctly, hit CTRL+ALT+DEL on your keyboard, enter the Task Manager, and select the "Services" tab. In the list of services you should see "MySQL" with a status of "Running".
  - Add MySQL to Environment Variables.
    - Go to Control Panel -> System
    - Go to Advanced System Settings
    - Go to Environment Variables
    - Under "Systemvariables" select **Path**
    - Edit and add your install path of MySQL, i.e **C:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Server 8.0\bin\**
- Choose a database management tool
  * MySQL cli (Fastest)
  * [[https://github.com/webyog/sqlyog-community/wiki/Downloads|SQLYog Community Edition]]
  * [[https://www.heidisql.com/download.php|HeidiSQL]] (Best for beginners)
  * MySQL Workbench (already installed if you chose to install the full MySQL package)
  * [[https://dbeaver.io/|DBeaver]] (Multiplatform Database Management Tool)
  - Try connecting to your database. You may be looking for "Connect to Host", "New Connection" or "Session Manager" depending on which program you use.
  - Create a new connection/session. The Hostname/IP address of "127.0.0.1" or "localhost" is fine if you installed MySQL on the same computer that you installed HeidiSQL or SQLYog. Simply fill in your root // whatever password and you should now be able to connect to your database.
- [[https://cmake.org/download/|CMake]]
  - Download and install the **Latest Release** windows-x86_64.msi file, **NEVER the RC (Release Candidate) versions.**
  - We recommend to compile in 64 bits mode.
- MySQL development files
  - These files are shipped with MySQL Server, search for them in the program files directory, MySQL\MySQL Server 8.0\lib / MySQL\MySQL Server 5.7\lib.
- [[http://www.slproweb.com/products/Win32OpenSSL.html|OpenSSL]] Download the 64bit version.
{% include important.html content="Use version 1.1 or 3.0. 3.1 and above is not supported." %}
  - Find the 64-bit version by finding the latest 3.0.x Win64 OpenSSL that is NOT the "light" version. (Example: Win64 OpenSSL v3.0.7)
{{site.data.alerts.note}} If you get the error 'Missing Microsoft Visual C++ .... Redistributable' while installing OpenSSL, download the <a href="https://aka.ms/vs/17/release/vc_redist.x64.exe">Microsoft Visual C++ 2017/2019/2022 Redistributable Package (x64) (Direct Download)</a> (1.7MB Installer) and install it. {{site.data.alerts.end}}
{{site.data.alerts.note}} While installing OpenSSL, choose The OpenSSL binaries (/bin) directory (NOT "The Windows system directory") when given the choice of where to copy the OpenSSL DLLs. These DLLs will need to be located easily for <a href="windows-core-installation">Core Installation</a>. {{site.data.alerts.end}}
- [[https://www.boost.org/|Boost]].
  - Download the prebuilt Windows Binary for Visual Studio 2022
  - [[https://sourceforge.net/projects/boost/files/boost-binaries/1.81.0/boost_1_81_0-msvc-14.3-64.exe/download|64bit]]
  - Add an environment variable to the "System" variable named "BOOST_ROOT" and with the value being your Boost installation directory, e.g. ''%%C:/local/boost_1_81_0%%''. Important is to use '**/**', not '**\**'  when pointing to the directory. (Make sure that it does not have a trailing slash (end of the path). If you still get problems, add the same variable in the ''%%USER%%'' variables section too, as shown in the image below.)

{% include note.html content=“Notice that this image shows the version number 1.72.0 - use your actual version number in your settings.” %}
