Reducord is distributed as a portable standalone executable. There is no complex installer required, just download and run.
- Go to Releases: Navigate to the Releases page of this repository.
-
Download: Find the latest version (e.g.,
v0.1.0) and download thereducord.exefile from the Assets section. -
Move to Folder: We recommend placing the
.exein its own folder (e.g.,C:\Tools\Reducord\), as it may create a small configuration file in the future. -
Run: Double-click
reducord.exeto start the application.
Important
Administrator Privileges: While basic cache cleaning works with standard permissions, you may need to run Reducord as an Administrator to use advanced features like "Process Priority Boosting" (coming in v0.2.0).
Since Reducord is a new open-source project and the executable is not yet signed with a paid Microsoft certificate, you might see a blue "Windows protected your PC" popup.
To bypass this:
- Click on "More info".
- Click "Run anyway".
You can always verify the safety of the app by checking the source code here on GitHub and building it yourself.
- Operating System: Windows 10 or Windows 11 (64-bit).
- Graphics: A GPU compatible with DirectX 11.
- Dependencies: Reducord is statically linked, so you don't need to install extra Visual C++ Redistributables in most cases.
We're currently not supporting automatic updates. To update Reducord, simply:
- Close the application if it's running.
- Download the new version of
reducord.exefrom the Releases page. - Replace the old file with the new one.
