Download

Download ATK-Player-v0.2.1-Windows.zip

  1. Download the ZIP.
  2. Extract all files.
  3. Open the extracted folder and double-click ATK-Player-0.2.1-Windows-x64.msi.
  4. Follow the setup wizard.

After installation, launch ATK Player from the Windows Start Menu or use the installer's Launch ATK Player checkbox.

The ZIP contains the Windows MSI installer, installation instructions, and licence notices. It is an installer package, not a portable application.

The package is approximately 131 MB because the MSI includes licence notices and matching source materials for the application and its dependencies.

What's new

  • New installer wizard. The MSI now opens a branded setup wizard with the ATK logo. The final page confirms the install succeeded, thanks you for installing, and offers a Launch ATK Player checkbox.
  • Welcome screen. The first launch after installing or upgrading shows a welcome window with a quick overview, a link to send feedback on GitHub and the creator's website. Reopen it any time from Help → Welcome to ATK Player.
  • Frame number while scrubbing. Dragging the playhead now shows the current frame number in a badge just above it, so you always know where you are.
  • Fewer save prompts. Opening or closing a single video no longer asks you to save a project. ATK Player now asks only when there's review work worth keeping: bookmarks, a playlist of more than one clip, or changes to a saved .atkproj project.
  • Cleaner default layout. The Bookmarks panel starts closed so the viewer gets the full width. Open it with F5, View → Bookmarks Panel, or by creating a range bookmark.

For developers and pipeline integrations

  • The API's discardUnsaved guard uses the same rule as the save prompt, so open_media on an untitled single-clip session with no bookmarks no longer needs discardUnsaved: true.
  • build-installer.ps1 can sign through Azure Trusted Signing (-TrustedSigningDlib / -TrustedSigningMetadata). See packaging/windows/CODE_SIGNING.md.

Upgrading

Extract the ZIP, then install the 0.2.1 MSI over 0.2.0. It upgrades in place and keeps your preferences, projects and media.

Requirements

  • Windows 11 x64 (the currently verified release platform)
  • Microsoft Visual C++ 2015–2022 x64 Redistributable, installed separately

The MSI includes the required Qt and FFmpeg runtime components.

Unsigned build notice

The Windows 0.2.1 MSI and executable are unsigned. Windows may show an Unknown publisher or Microsoft Defender SmartScreen warning. Click More info → Run anyway, or right-click the extracted MSI → Properties → tick Unblock, if that option appears.

Verify your download

In PowerShell, run this command from the folder containing the downloaded ZIP:

Get-FileHash .\ATK-Player-v0.2.1-Windows.zip -Algorithm SHA256

Expected ZIP SHA-256:

aa2eb086130d1bfbee42403a0bdcc79f9538526a865d89b2ede8c45453e2c9c9

After extracting, you can also verify the MSI:

Get-FileHash .\ATK-Player-0.2.1-Windows-x64.msi -Algorithm SHA256

Expected MSI SHA-256:
