# Installation

Here's the download for the latest version of Amethyst Installer.
Just open the Microsoft Store and install it like any other app.
On the first launch, you will be guided through the setup to install all of the dependencies needed to run the app.
**Important!** Amethyst will ask you to restart as Administrator **only the first time** you start it.

<!-- This screen shows up because the installer is not signed. Code signing certificates cost money and we can't afford that. [Unless you donate :)](https://opencollective.com/k2vr) then we can. -->
This appears because the application does not have a certificate. We've yet to get one for financial and privacy reasons.
_(Also, getting a certificate wouldn't garantee the immediate disappearance of this pop-up. Thanks Microsoft.)_

### How to fix SteamVR or VRPathReg Not Found error
This error happens usually because of a broken `openvrpaths.vrpath` file, or because you have a Windows user account without administrator permissions.
