Installation

Get MP Poster running on your Windows PC in under 2 minutes.

System Requirements

Windows 10 or 11 (64-bit)
4 GB RAM minimum, 8 GB recommended
500 MB free disk space
Internet connection
Edge WebView2 runtime (auto-installed if missing)

Step 1 — Download

After purchase, you'll receive a license email with a download link. The installer is a single .exe file (~250 MB) that includes everything — Python, Chromium, all dependencies. No separate installs required.

If you've lost the email, sign in at your account page and click "Resend License Email."

Step 2 — Run the Installer

Double-click MP-Poster-Setup-1.0.exe.
Windows may show a SmartScreen warning ("Unknown publisher"). Click More info → Run anyway. This is normal for unsigned installers.
Accept the license agreement.
Pick install location (default: C:\Program Files\MP Poster).
Choose whether to create a desktop shortcut.

Step 3 — Enter License Key

The installer asks for your license key. Paste it from your email — it looks like:

xK9mP2nT7sQwL4vR8jH3yU6oI1eA5bF0

The installer validates the key with our license server (takes 2–3 seconds). If valid, you proceed. If not, see Troubleshooting.

Internet required for activation Your machine connects to our server once during install to bind the license. After that, it re-validates every 24 hours quietly in the background.

Step 4 — Install Completes

Click Finish. If "Launch MP Poster" is checked, the app opens immediately.

You'll see a native desktop window titled "MP Poster" — no browser, no URL bar. This is your control panel.

Launching MP Poster

After install, you can launch from:

Desktop icon (if you selected that option)
Start Menu → MP Poster
File Explorer → C:\Program Files\MP Poster\launcher.vbs
