Get Murmur

Runs on Windows 10 (build 19041 or later) and Windows 11, on x64 and ARM64.

Latest release

The first install asks you to trust a certificate. Updates after that are a double-click.

  1. Download the certificate

    Grab Murmur.cer from the release you're installing.

  2. Trust it once

    Install it to Local Machine → Trusted People. Windows asks for admin approval.

  3. Run the bundle

    Double-click the .msixbundle.

Self-signing keeps Murmur free and independent; a Microsoft Store release may remove this step later.
