## How to install the APK Installer
### Minimum requirements:
- Windows 10 Build 17763 and above
- The device needs to support ARM64/x86/x64
- At least 400MB of free storage space (used to store installation packages and install applications)

### Install the app using the app installation script
- Download and unzip the latest [installation package `(APKInstaller (Package)_x.x.x.0_Test.rar)`](https://github.com/Paving-Base/APK-Installer/releases/latest "Download Package")
- If you do not have the app installation script, you can download [`Install.ps1`] into the target directory.

- Right click on`Install.ps1`, and select 'Open with Powershell'.
- The installation script will guide you through the rest of the process.

### Install the app using the Windows App Installer ⭐
- Download and unzip the latest [installation package `(APKInstaller (Package)_x.x.x.0_Test.rar)`](https://github.com/Paving-Base/APK-Installer/releases/latest "下载安装包")
- [Turn on side loading mode](https://www.windowscentral.com/how-enable-windows-10-sideload-apps-outside-store)
  - If you want to develop UWP applications, you can turn on the [developer mode](https://docs.microsoft.com/zh-cn/windows/uwp/get-started/enable-your-device-for-development). **For most users who do not need to do UWP development, the developer mode is not necessary**
- Install all packages under `Dependencies` folder
![Dependencies](Images/Guides/Snipaste_2019-10-13_15-51-33.png)
- Install the certificate to `Local Machine` > `Place all certificates in the following store` > `Trusted Root CA`
  - This operation requires administrator privileges. If you did not use this privilege when installing the certificate, it may be because you installed the certificate to the wrong location or you are using a super administrator account
