Firetail is available for Mac, Linux and Windows.

Installation Windows

We successfully tested Firetail on Windows 7 and 10. As Microsoft no longer ships security updates for Windows 7, we strongly suggest to switch to an alternative as soon as possible.

In general, on Windows systems please make sure to have the latest updates installed.
