Download the latest installer from GitHub Releases and run the recoll-setup-*.exe file.

Once the package is published in the Windows Package Manager community repository, users will be able to install it with:

winget install alarmz.Recoll

The manifest files for this are in winget/.

Option 3: Install with Scoop

This repository also works as a Scoop bucket:

scoop bucket add alarmz https://github.com/alarmz/recoll

The manifest is in bucket/recoll.json.

Option 4: Install with Chocolatey

A Chocolatey package skeleton is included in packaging/chocolatey. Publishing to the public Chocolatey community feed requires a maintainer account and package push.
