SOFTWARE : HOW TO INSTALL
Once downloaded, the content of the official installation zip package needs to be extracted to a folder named "WinReducer" in your HDD/SSD.
​
To extract the content of the official installation zip package, you can use 7-zip, WinRAR or use the integrated Windows zip capabilities.
​
There is no annoying installation procedure, because this is a portable executable which is working exclusively from the "WinReducer" folder.
​
After the zip extraction, you will find three files in your "WinReducer" folder :
- Changelog.txt
- vcruntime140.dll
- WinReducer_x64.exe
SOFTWARE : HOW TO START
Just click on the "WinReducer_x64.exe"to launch the first software configuration , you have nothing to do because everything is automatically done for you.
It will create two folders in your "WinReducer" folder :
- "HOME" : which is used to store the user files while using your plugin(s)
- "PLUGINS" : which is used to store all plugins files and configurations
IMPORTANT NOTE
Do not rename the executable file, because it will reset your plugin configurations by deleting both folders "HOME" and "PLUGINS" !
