Tutorial - How To Install Deemix On Windows

To install deemix on Windows, there are two options - a simpler method using a pre-built executable file or a manual method for advanced users. The simpler method involves downloading and extracting the executable file, then running it to access the web interface. The manual method requires installing Python, downloading and extracting the deemix files, opening a command prompt to install requirements and run the server script to start the web interface. Both methods require obtaining an ARL from Deezer to log in to the interface.

If you used “6 May 2020 Simpler Method”, just open deemix_webui.exe again.
