3. Important Notes Before Installing#

  • Early Alpha Status: PhotoCraft is in early development. While the team follows a strict "panic-free" reliability guideline, always keep backups of your production files.
  • Windows Installer Workaround: If the Windows .msi or .exe installer stalls on "Please wait while Windows configures PhotoCraft", download the Portable ZIP version from the releases page to run immediately without installation.
  • Official Source Verification: Always download from github.com/storytold/photocraft/releases. Never download executable files from unofficial mirrors or unverified third-party blogs.
  • Check our Compatibility Hub for GPU requirements and the Troubleshooting Guide if you experience startup or display errors.
