Requirements

  • Windows 10 version 1809 or later, or Windows 11.
  • An x64 system for the native Windows build.
  • Free disk space for the app and downloaded models.
The current Windows build supports CPU inference and compatible NVIDIA CUDA or Vulkan GPUs on Windows. See Hardware.

​
Install from PowerShell

The script verifies the download and runs the Windows installer silently. It includes the desktop app and CLI, and makes magnitude available in the current PowerShell session. Open a new terminal to use it in other shells that were already running. Open Magnitude from the Start menu and follow Quick start. For a headless session, run magnitude serve instead.

​
Download the installer

  1. Download the Windows installer from Download Magnitude.
  2. Run the .exe and complete installation.
  3. Open Magnitude and follow Quick start.
The installer installs for your user account under %LOCALAPPDATA%\Programs\Magnitude.

​
Updates and removal

Use Settings → Application updates to check for updates. Restart to update stops local inference while the application is replaced. Uninstall Magnitude through Windows Settings → Apps. Downloaded models and settings are stored separately in %USERPROFILE%\.magnitude; keep them if you intend to reinstall. Agents installed inside WSL need a small amount of configuration; see Windows and WSL.
