⚠️ Windows for ARM compatibility ⚠️

Open-Shell is not compatible with Windows for ARM. If you install it on a Windows for ARM installation (ex. using Parallels Desktop on an Apple Silicon Mac), you will no longer be able to log into your account the next time you reboot. Please refrain from installing Open-Shell on Windows for ARM.

Temporary Translation/Language Solution

  1. Download language DLL
  2. Place it either in the Open-Shell's install folder or in the %ALLUSERSPROFILE%\OpenShell\Languages folder
