Getting Started
Go to the latest release and download one file:
| File | For |
|---|---|
| MetaScrub.exe | Most Windows 10 and 11 PCs |
| MetaScrub-arm64.exe | Windows on ARM laptops (for example Snapdragon) |
| SHA256SUMS.txt | Checksums, if you want to verify the download |
Not sure which one? Open Settings → System → About in Windows and look at System type. "ARM-based processor" means the arm64 file; anything else means MetaScrub.exe.
Optional, to verify the download: in PowerShell, run Get-FileHash .\MetaScrub.exe and check the hash matches the line in SHA256SUMS.txt.
Double-click the .exe. There's nothing to install.
Windows SmartScreen may warn you the first time because the app isn't code-signed yet. Click More info → Run anyway.
On first use, MetaScrub may download the open-source tools ffmpeg and yt-dlp from their official GitHub releases. That's normal, and no personal data is sent.
The download is free, but you need a license key to use it. Get one on Discord, then enter it when MetaScrub asks. Each key works on one PC.
