** This is not the whole program **

It has to be extracted into an existing emulation station (For Windows) installation. The latest releases are here: https://github.com/jrassa/EmulationStation/releases/ There are several forks of ES for Windows, but currently the only one being kept up-to-date is the jrassa fork
