How to download root on windows


This is what shows up. I have installed Root. How do I launch it now?

Where did you install it?

In a folder in the the downloads section

So from C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\2019\Community cd to your preferred directory, for example: cd %USERPROFILE%, then type: Download\[folder where root is]\bin\thisroot.bat, and finally you should be able to start root by typing root
Obviously, you have to replace [folder where root is] by the location where you installed root

What exactly do you mean by root by root

What do you mean?

What is cd %userprofile%?

What is the syntax for writing this command?

Do you know how to use a computer?

Yes I should think so ?

Well, you don’t know how to change directory, which is a very basic command, so I was wondering…

I mean I am not used to coding as such. I have only done basic compilation using a C++ compiler. Otherwise, I am a total beginner.

OK, no problem. So you never used the command prompt?
Once you started the command prompt, as you wrote there:

type: cd %USERPROFILE%

okay done

What is displayed in the command prompt now?

C:\ USERS \ “username” >

Good, so now, type: Downloads\root\bin\thisroot.bat

The system cannot find the path specified:

It’s installed in a folder called “INTERNSHIPS” in the downloads section

Downloads\INTERNSHIPS\root\bin\thisroot.bat, or wherever root is installed. please make an effort…

That is EXACTLY what I did try
