Installing INCUES on Windows

About two minutes. Windows shows two warnings along the way; both are expected for now, and here's exactly what to click.

Step by step
  1. Download the zip from your home page, then extract all of it into one folder (right-click → Extract All). It holds three files: the app package (.msix), our signing certificate (.cer) and Install-inCues.bat. Keep them together.
  2. Double-click Install-inCues.bat. If Windows says "Windows protected your PC", click More info, then Run anyway. It appears because our files aren't signed by a certificate Microsoft already trusts — we're working on that, and it says nothing about what they contain.
  3. Approve the admin prompt. The installer adds our signing certificate so Windows accepts the app package. It asks only the first time.
  4. INCUES installs. Say yes to launching it, then sign in with the account your invitation is tied to.
Updates

When a new version is out, download the zip again and run Install-inCues.bat. It installs over the old version and keeps your data.

What you need

Windows 10 (version 20H1 or newer) or Windows 11, and permission to approve an admin prompt.

If it doesn't work
"No .msix found in this folder"

The zip was opened, not extracted. Use Extract All and run the batch file from the extracted folder.

The installer stops at the certificate step

The admin prompt was declined or is blocked on this PC. Run it again and approve the prompt, or ask whoever manages the PC.

"This app package is not supported for installation"

You're on a Windows build older than 10.0.19041. INCUES needs Windows 10 20H1 or newer.

Sign-in says you're not invited

You're signed in to the app with a different account than the one you accepted the invitation with. Sign out and use that one.

Removing INCUES

Uninstall it like any app from Settings → Apps. To be thorough, also remove our certificate: certlm.msc → Trusted People → Certificates → delete the inCues entry. Leaving it there means any package we sign would install without prompting.
