New page

= How to install RMS under Windows =

This document was written by Peter Eschman, and is based on a recorded TeamViewer session on his computer, under the direction of Denis Vida. It was revised on 09/11/2019 for a newer Anaconda 2019.7 release.

== Start by downloading these three resources: ==

1) Microsoft Visual Studio Build Tools
https://visualstudio.microsoft.com/downloads/#build-tools-for-visual-studio-2019

2) Anaconda for Windows
https://www.anaconda.com/products/individual

3) Git for Windows
https://git-scm.com

== Install Anaconda ==
First you will see the Welcome screen, so click Next.

Click I Agree to accept license:

You need to install for "just me" on the next setup screen, otherwise the install will not work correctly:

Choose destination folder next, the default location is fine:

On the next screen, it is best to select the option to add Anaconda to the PATH environment variable,, then click Install. If you don't do this, you will not be able to call conda from Windows PowerShell, so do this unless you are using another active installation of Python:

After you have clicked Install, it may take a while for the install to complete. On an older Asus N61J machine this took about 52 minutes to complete. On a newer Dell laptop, this took about 21 minutes.

When the window says "Completed", click Next

At the end of the process, it will say "Thanks for installing Anaconda" You can elect to "Learn more about Anaconda Cloud" and "Learn how to get started with Anaconda", or skip these steps, since we are primarily interested in getting RMS running, so uncheck these options and click "Finish":

== Continuing step 3) Install Git ==

Click "Next" on GNU license:

Now you can accept the default install folder:

On the next screen, you can leave the default install components alone, then click "Next".

On the next screen you can leave the Start Menu Folder on default, then click "Next".

The next step is to "Choosing the default editor used by Git". At this point you can select the option to change the editor from Vim to Nano, since this is the typical editor for the Raspberry Pi. Make your selection, then click "Next":

On the next screen: "Adjusting your PATH environment", leave settings on default and click "Next".

On the next screen: "Choosing HTTPS transport backend", leave settings on default and click "Next".

On the next screen: "Configuring the line ending conventions", leave settings on default and click "Next".

On the next screen: "Configuring the terminal emulator to use with Git Bash", leave settings on default and click "Next".

On the next screen: "Configuring extra options", leave settings on default and click "Install".

Next you will see "Completing the Git Setup Wizard", and you can elect to "View Release Notes", or just click "Finish" at this point:

== Final steps, and running RMS under Windows: ==

After you have completed the Git install, start up Anaconda PowerShell (you can do this by opening the start menu, and typing "Anaconda Powershell", then select it and open using the default settings.

The next steps are tests to see if both conda and git work from the Anaconda PowerShell.
