rNitro for Windows

Final Windows tray build kept for download only. No new features or active support — use macOS or Linux for current rNitro.

About rNitro for Windows

Windows is no longer actively developed. The last tray build (v4.2.4-Windows-Final-x86) remains available so existing users can still download it.

What it does — system tray icon with CPU %, temperature, RAM, optional BTC, and short history graphs
EXE — needs .NET 8 Desktop Runtime (x64)
PowerShell installer — compiles with built-in csc.exe (no Visual Studio SDK)
Install path — typically %LOCALAPPDATA%\rNitro

For new installs we recommend macOS or Linux.

v4.2.4-Windows-Final-x86
