Installation instructions

Windows

To install, just execute the Windows installer. Administrator permissions are not necessary when you install FreeCAD only for the current user.
You can safely install FreeCAD 0.20.2 over an existing FreeCAD 0.20.x installation.
In case Windows warns you about a potential risk, you can ignore this and select to install anyway.

The installer works on all Windows 7, 8, 10 and 11 systems. Windows Vista and older are not supported.
An installation of FreeCAD 0.20.x will not interfere with an installation of FreeCAD 0.19 or a weekly build of FreeCAD’s master.

Linux

AppImages (no compiling necessary) are available (a kind of binary that can run on many Linux distros).
AppImage (delta) updates

For more streamlined downloading of AppImages download AppImageUpdate (GUI or the command line version). To perform an update:

Using GUI

chmod +x ./AppImageUpdate.AppImage
./AppImageUpdate.AppImage ./FreeCAD.AppImage

Command line

chmod +x ./appimageupdatetool.AppImage
./appimageupdatetool.AppImage ./FreeCAD.AppImage

MacOSX

Binary stable builds (no compiling necessary). Download the .dmg below, you may need to expand the assets tab to see the available packages. The build will only work correctly with MacOS version ≥ 10.12.

NOTE: .app is not signed and will not run on MacOS out of the box.

1. After opening the download, drag the app into your Applications folder (if you already have FreeCAD in there, it is possible to keep both)
2. When you open the new version, you will get a pop-up saying that it cannot be verified. Do not Move to Bin, simply click Cancel or press Escape key.
3. Then go to System Preferences > Security and Privacy > General and at the lower part you will see that FreeCAD was blocked from use because it is not from an identified developer
4. Click the option to Open Anyway
5. When prompted to confirm, choose Open

An installation of FreeCAD 0.20.x will not interfere with an installation of FreeCAD 0.19 or a pre-release/weekly build of FreeCAD 0.21.

Note: there is also a windows build that has been generated using python v3.10 (FreeCAD_0.20.1-2022-08-28-conda-Windows-x86_64-py310.7z). This build needs to be unzipped using 7zip and can be run as an executable. This build will is of interest for users who’d like to experiment with the FreeCAD<->Blender(Sverchok) geometry nodes effort. See forum thread for details.

Windows

To install, just execute the Windows installer. Administrator permissions are not necessary when you install FreeCAD only for the current user.
You can safely install FreeCAD 0.19.3 over an existing FreeCAD 0.19.x installation.
In case Windows warns you about a potential risk, you can ignore this and select to install anyway.

The installer works on all Windows 7, 8, 10 and 11 systems. Windows Vista and older are not supported.
An installation of FreeCAD 0.19.x will not interfere with an installation of FreeCAD 0.18 or a pre-release of FreeCAD 0.20.

Known Issues

Chromebook

At the moment there is no support for aarch64 builds which is pretty popular for arch of Chromebooks. We’re monitoring the upstream issue. Apologies for the inconvenience!

We understand through our forum users that FreeCAD can successfully run on Chromebooks which have Linux support. The only caveat known to us is the need to disable GPU acceleration via chrome://flags/#crostini-gpu-support The easiest way to install it is to enable Flatpak and then install using this link

Known Issues

There are several known issues for different platforms. Please read the current up to date list in the FreeCAD forum.

Chromebook

The only caveat known to us is the need to disable GPU acceleration via chrome://flags/#crostini-gpu-support The easiest way to install it is to enable Flatpak and then install using this link

Linux

AppImages (no compiling necessary) are available (a kind of binary that can run on many Linux distros).
AppImage (delta) updates

For more streamlined downloading of AppImages download AppImageUpdate (GUI or the command line version). To perform an update:

Using GUI

chmod +x ./AppImageUpdate.AppImage
./AppImageUpdate.AppImage ./FreeCAD.AppImage

Command line

chmod +x ./appimageupdatetool.AppImage
./appimageupdatetool.AppImage ./FreeCAD.AppImage

MacOSX

Binary stable builds (no compiling necessary). Download the .dmg below, you may need to expand the assets tab to see the available packages. The build will only work correctly with macosx version >= 10.12.

NOTE: .app is not signed and will not run on MacOS out of the box.

After opening the download, drag the app into your Applications folder (if you already have FreeCAD in there, it is possible to keep both)
When you open the new version, you will get a pop-up saying that it cannot be verified. Do not Move to Bin, simply click Cancel or press Escape key.
Then go to System Preferences > Security and Privacy > General and at the lower part you will see that FreeCAD was blocked from use because it is not from an identified developer
Click the option to Open Anyway
When prompted to confirm, choose Open

Windows

Binary stable builds (no compiling necessary) are available. Download the .7z file.

The builds are portable and do not require an installation. Extract the file using 7zip and start the application by double clicking on FreeCAD.exe in the bin sub-directory of the extracted package.
For example

Download https://www.7-zip.org/
Download the FreeCAD_0.19.*-Win-Conda_vc14.x-x86_64.7z file from the release page
Extract the binary from the .7z
Run the FreeCAD.exe file to be found in the bin folder.

NOTE: The Conda Win based build are packaged from here: https://github.com/FreeCAD/FreeCAD-AppImage
They should be the Windows equivalent of the Conda based .AppImage and .dmg

For windows users there is the option of using Chocolatey to manage and track upstream 0.19 releases. The 0.19 package is available of it’s own dedicated FreeCAD Chocolatey package page

FreeCADLibs_12.5.4_x64_VC17.7z is not required to run the binaries provided here. It is a package that provides all necessary dependencies to compile FreeCAD with VS2015/17/19 (both release and debug mode).
FreeCADLibs_12.5.4_VC1.7 updates QT 5.15.2, and gmsh is updated to 4.8.3.
These packages are provided courtesy of FreeCAD community member apeltauer.
The Win portable build and installer use these libraries.

This is the end of the 0.18 series of releases.
FreeCAD will try to provide binaries at a future date.

No binaries will be provided for this point release.
This is planned to be the final release of the v0.18 series. This release addresses one singular major issue, the addon manager. Recently GitHub changed its infrastructure and subsequently the add-on manager broke.
