LibreWolf for Win64
-------------------
# LibreWolf for windows
We have a zip file and an installer available for download.. We no longer consider these builds alpha quality, but it is not out of beta yet either.
* [download latest release](https://gitlab.com/librewolf-community/browser/windows/-/releases).
* [issue tracker](https://gitlab.com/librewolf-community/browser/windows/-/issues).
**Downloads**: To get the installer, head over to the **[releases](https://gitlab.com/librewolf-community/browser/windows/-/releases)** page.
# download locations
Note: If your version of LibreWolf does _not_ run, an additional install of the [vc_redist.x64.exe](https://aka.ms/vs/16/release/VC_redist.x64.exe) component might be required.
* [[arch releases](https://gitlab.com/librewolf-community/browser/arch/-/releases)] - [AUR(en)](https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/librewolf/)
* [[linux releases](https://gitlab.com/librewolf-community/browser/linux/-/releases)] - Flatpak, AppImage, Arch and other Linux builds of the LibreWolf browser.
* [[windows releases](https://gitlab.com/librewolf-community/browser/windows/-/releases)] - (this repository)
* On [OBS](https://openbuildservice.org/), we have [ubuntu and debian builds](https://build.opensuse.org/project/show/home:bgstack15:aftermozilla).
This repository is for the windows installer, this repo is not for _librewolf.cfg_ issues, that goes [here](https://gitlab.com/librewolf-community/settings). These config file settings are system-wide for all users.
# settings repository
## .plan
* [[settings repository](https://gitlab.com/librewolf-community/settings)] - all _librewolf.cfg_ stuff.. _([issues](https://gitlab.com/librewolf-community/settings/-/issues))_
1. Make LibreWolf compile better and squash the bugs related to building Firefox correctly. (with our current and future patches)
2. Transfer this build process to Gitlab public shared linux runners so the entire build process is transparent. (for windows, this means cross-compilation)
3. Keep up to date with the best hardening/fingerprinting/security/privacy practices and/or patches, _keeping in mind usability_. (the fun part!)
4. Goto 3
