Installation Guide
This guide covers the Windows installer, which is the supported way to install Aiviro Editor for most users. For Linux and macOS notes see System Requirements.
Step 1: Download the installer
Go to the official Aiviro website and download the latest version of Aiviro Editor.
The installer is named after the release, for example
Aiviro-Editor-0.23.1-Windows-setup.exe.
Step 2: Run the installer
Locate the downloaded file and double-click it. The installation wizard starts. Click Next to continue.
/img/editor/install/02-welcome.pngCapture: the installer Welcome page for the current release. Why it must be retaken: the old screenshot shows an earlier version number in the wizard heading.
If an older Aiviro Editor is already installed, the wizard silently uninstalls it first and then installs the new version into the same location. Your projects, configuration and Vault entries are not removed.
Step 3: Accept the license agreement
Review the EULA. Click I Agree to proceed.
Step 4: Choose installation type
Select whether to install:
| Option | Meaning |
|---|---|
| All users | Installs for everyone on this machine. Requires administrator rights. |
| Current user only | Installs into your own profile — no administrator rights needed. |
Click Next.
/img/editor/install/04-install-type.pngCapture: the install-mode page with both radio buttons visible. Annotate: highlight that All users is labelled (Administrator rights required).
Step 5: Select components
| Component | Description | Default |
|---|---|---|
| Aiviro Editor | Main application. Always installed and cannot be unchecked. | ✓ |
| Create desktop shortcut | Adds Aiviro-Editor to your desktop. | |
| Create menu shortcuts | Adds an Aiviro-Editor folder to the Start menu, including an uninstaller shortcut. |
After selecting, click Next.
/img/editor/install/05-components.pngCapture: the Components page. Why it must be retaken: the second optional component is now labelled Create menu shortcuts (the old screenshot says Create Start menu entries).
Step 6: Choose installation location
The default location depends on the installation type you picked in Step 4 — a
per-machine install goes to Program Files, a per-user install into your own
profile. To change it, click Browse…, then click Install.
/img/editor/install/06-path.pngCapture: the Directory page showing the default path for an All users install.
Step 7: Installation progress
The installer unpacks and copies the files. When it finishes, a confirmation page appears. Check Run Aiviro Editor to launch it immediately, then click Finish.
After installing
Continue with First Launch & Basic Setup to enter your licence credentials and create your first robot profile.
Uninstalling
Use Settings → Apps in Windows, the Uninstall shortcut in the Start-menu
folder, or run uninstall.exe from the installation directory.
Screenshots may vary slightly depending on the installer version and your operating system.
