Install guide

Install on Windows in three steps

The installer is a short setup wizard. Nothing runs in the background afterwards.

  1. Run the installer

    Open XOV-Browser-Setup-1.0.0.exe from your Downloads folder. If SmartScreen appears, choose More info, then Run anyway.

  2. Let it install for your account

    XOV is copied to %LOCALAPPDATA%\Programs\XOV Browser. No admin prompt, and other accounts on the PC are not affected.

  3. Pick shortcuts and launch

    Choose desktop and Start Menu shortcuts, keep Launch XOV Browser when finished ticked, and click Finish.

Verify

Check the Windows installer

Run either command in the folder that holds the Windows installer and compare the result with the Windows SHA-256 value. To verify the Android APK, replace the filename in the command with XOV-Browser-Android-1.0.0.apk and compare with the APK SHA-256 value in the Android section.

Command Prompt
certutil -hashfile XOV-Browser-Setup-1.0.0.exe SHA256
PowerShell
Get-FileHash .\XOV-Browser-Setup-1.0.0.exe -Algorithm SHA256

Updating

Updates are manual. For Windows, download and run the latest installer. For Android, download the latest APK and follow the device installation prompts.

Uninstalling
