System requirements

• Windows 10 version 1809 or later, or Windows 11.
• An x64 or ARM64 processor.
• Microsoft Edge WebView2. It ships with Windows 11 and current Windows 10; the installer adds it automatically if it is missing.

Verify the download

Every release is built by a public GitHub Actions workflow and carries a signed build attestation. With the GitHub CLI installed:

gh attestation verify .\Vitals_x64-setup.exe --repo dragoscv/vitals

A successful result proves the file was built from this repository by its release workflow, and names the exact commit. To compare checksums instead:

Get-FileHash .\Vitals_x64-setup.exe -Algorithm SHA256

and look for the same value in SHA256SUMS.txt.

Windows SmartScreen

The first time you run the installer, Windows may show “Windows protected your PC”. That is expected.

• Why: the installer is not signed with a commercial code-signing certificate. Those cost several hundred euros a year, and SmartScreen trusts a file only after many people have run it. An unknown publisher is warned about by default.
• What to do: select More info, then Run anyway.
• How to be sure it is safe: verify the attestation or checksum above before you run it. That is a stronger guarantee than a certificate, because it ties the file to the public source code that produced it.

Silent install

The installer asks no questions. To script it:

.\Vitals_x64-setup.exe /S

Updates

Vitals checks for a new version in the background shortly after it starts. When one is found it is downloaded, its signature is verified, and it is installed when you quit the app. An update with a missing or wrong signature is refused. You can turn the check off in Settings → About.

Uninstall

Open Settings → Apps → Installed apps in Windows, find Vitals and choose Uninstall. Your settings and history in %LOCALAPPDATA%\Vitals are kept, so a reinstall picks up where you left off. Delete that folder to remove them too.
