I am a new user for scorpio.But I don't know that how can I open it in windows.The GUI's gives error when ı try to open it in GUI.Can you tell me how can I install it on Windows? ( step by step )

Use the following install script https://github.com/dshawul/Scorpio/releases/download/2.9.0/install.sh

On windows you need something to run shell scripts cygwin, mysys .. Edit the 2 lines in install.sh to:

  6 OS=windows          # OS is either ubuntu/centos/windows
  8 DEV=cpu            # Device is either gpu/cpu

to install cpu version. If you have GPUs change device to gpu.

Then run install.sh and it should successfully install everything for you.

No, install.sh doesn't install with msys.( I can't run it with cygwin. ) It only downloads nets-ccrl-cegt and egbbdll64-nn-windows-cpu and that is all. After downloading it creates wget.exe.stackdump and exits.( File type is stackdump. )

Just tried it with mysys and it works. The only issue i had was mysys produces paths like /c/Users which i had to replace with c:/Users in scorpio.ini. Also testest with cygwin with no problem so i am not sure what issues you have but it is not with the script.

Hey bud, Can't you do something in .exe format? I mean the classical setup style. Because I can't install Scorpio yet. Best Regards...
