If you use Picocrypt frequently, you can also download the installable version from <a href="https://github.com/HACKERALERT/Picocrypt/releases/download/1.33/Installer.exe">here</a>, which will install Picocrypt onto your system and add it to your start menu for easy access. The installer also includes extra compatibility helpers, so if the portable executable doesn't work, this likely will.
## macOS
Picocrypt for macOS is very simple as well. Download Picocrypt <a href="https://github.com/HACKERALERT/Picocrypt/releases/download/1.33/Picocrypt.app.zip">here</a>, extract the zip file, and run Picocrypt which is inside. If you can't open Picocrypt because it's not from a verified developer, control-click on Picocrypt and hit Open to bypass the warning. Keep in mind that Picocrypt runs through Rosetta 2 and requires OpenGL, and may not work in the future should Apple remove either.

If you can't open Picocrypt because it's not from a verified developer, control-click on Picocrypt and hit Open to bypass the warning. Note that the standard release targets x86-64 systems so you may need Rosetta 2, but you can compile from source on Apple silicon to run Picocrypt natively. Also note that Picocrypt requires OpenGL, and may not work in the future if Apple removes it.
## Linux
To use Picocrypt on Linux, you can download the AppImage <a href="https://github.com/HACKERALERT/Picocrypt/releases/download/1.33/Picocrypt.AppImage">here</a>. While this AppImage should work on most systems, Linux is a mess when it comes to cross-distro and cross-release compatibility, so if the AppImage doesn't work, you can try the <a href="https://snapcraft.io/picocrypt">Snap</a>, run Picocrypt through Wine, or compile from source using the instructions in the `src/` directory.
