windows installation issue

[Ipassanti]

I'm opening this issue because:

• I have found a bug
• I want to request a feature
• [Y] I have a question
• Other

I'm really sorry to submit this issue for asking easy question. But I really have difficult to install QRCP on Windows.
I have downloaded Go Lang and use "go get ~/qrcp" cmd. But i can't find Chmod Command on Windows.
And there's no ".exe" file in the released package.
Can you add a windows version installation guide?
Really thanks for that.

Hello, the "chmod" command is a Linux and Mac command, sorry if I did not make it clear in the README.

Have you tried running:

go get github.com/claudiodangelis/qrcp

If you are new to go, please make sure you have read the installation manual for Windows: https://golang.org/doc/install#windows

After running the command above, you should be able to use the tool by simply running qrcp in the command prompt.

[Ipassanti]

yes,I had used the "go get" command to install the "qrcp".
But somehow the system cant find "qrcp" program.
In this picture, it said 'qrcp' is not a inner or outter command or executable program.
But i don't know which step i havn't done.

Thank you, just as a test, does it work if you run:

go\bin\qrcp

[Ipassanti]

Yup！
Thanks for spending time to solve my problem ！ ：D

Please make sure to setup Go environment variables correctly, so that you don't have to use the full path of the binary every time.

I'm getting the same error:

[claudiodangelis]

Could you please try this

go get github.com/jhoonb/archivex

then

go get github.com/claudiodangelis/qrcp

Thanks

I deleted my C:\Users\Name\go\src\ directory (as mentioned here) and tried installing again, it worked!

Probably that directory was corrupt in my case, sorry for the trouble; I'm new to Go.
Please close the issue.

[claudiodangelis]

I'm glad to hear you figured it out, cheers!
