Terminal

One command. Windows fetches the installer itself, so no browser warning can appear. Windows may still ask you to confirm.

  1. Right-click the Start button and choose Terminal. On Windows 10 it is called Windows PowerShell.
  2. Paste this in and press Enter.
    winget install -e --id Hushglass.Hushglass

Installs for you only. No administrator password.

One line, then Enter.

Then protect your first window.

Launch Hushglass, choose the window you want to keep private, and turn on protection. Whichever route you took, this part is the same.
