Installation instructions
pip
Note that using pip outside virtualenv is not recommended since it ignores your systems package manager. If you aren’t comfortable debugging package installation issues, this is not the option for you.
Create and activate a virtualenv:
virtualenv dfwinregenv
cd dfwinregenv
source ./bin/activate
Upgrade pip and install dfWinReg dependencies:
pip install --upgrade pip
pip install dfwinreg
To deactivate the virtualenv run:
deactivate
Ubuntu 22.04 LTS

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:gift/stable
Update and install dfWinReg:
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install python3-dfwinreg
Windows
The l2tbinaries contains the necessary packages for running dfWinReg. l2tbinaries provides the following branches:
main; branch intended for the “packaged release” of dfWinReg and dependencies;
staging; branch intended for testing pre-releases of dfWinReg;
dev; branch intended for the “development release” of dfWinReg;
testing; branch intended for testing newly created packages.
The l2tdevtools project provides an update script to ease the process of keeping the dependencies up to date.
The script requires pywin32.
To install the release versions of the dependencies run:
set PYTHONPATH=.
C:\Python3\python.exe tools\update.py --preset dfwinreg
