## Install
|
||||

||||
1. Download the latest release zip and extract it.
|
||||

|
||||
```bash
|
||||
./build.sh --release # produces release/bash.exe + installer scripts
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Copy the `release/` folder to your Windows machine, then double-click **`install.bat`**.
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
- Copies `bash.exe` to `%LOCALAPPDATA%\Programs\BashForWindows\`
|
||||
- Adds it to your user **PATH**
|
||||
- Registers a **"Bash for Windows"** profile in Windows Terminal so it shows up in the `+` dropdown
