Verifying the integrity

To validate that the file you've downloaded is not damaged and is the file that was meant to be downloaded, you should download also:
- the .asc file that accompanies the file you've downloaded (the files have the same name, one just has an additional .asc extention),
- the imyplay-X.Y-sign-key.asc file, which contains the signing key.

Then, get GnuPG (or Gpg4Win), and:
1. Import the key using gpg --import imyplay-X.Y-sign-key.asc
2. Verify the signature on the file you've downloaded, e.g.: gpg --verify imyplay-X.Y.tar.gz.asc. If it says "Good signature", then everything is correct.

RPM packages

To install the RPM packages, simply run rpm -Uvh imyplay-X.Y-*.x86_64.rpm.
To install with signature verification, first import the key from the imyplay-X.Y-sign-key.asc file to RPM: rpm --import imyplay-X.Y-sign-key.asc, and then install the RPM packages as above.

DOS binaries

To install IMYplay using the binaries for DOS (the imyplay-dos-X.Y.zip file), just unpack the archive and copy the files you need to your chosen location. The imyplay.exe file is (obviously) required.

EXE installer

Just double-click to run, and follow the displayed steps: choose what to install and where to install.

Signed EXE installer

In order to verify the correctness of the installer:
1. Download also:
- the imyplay-X.Y-root-cert.der file,
- the imyplay-X.Y-sign-cert.cer file.
2. Open the Certificate Manager, e.g. by opening a command or shell prompt and typing certmgr.msc.
3. Add the imyplay-X.Y-root-cert.der file to "Trusted Root Certification Authorities".
4. Add the imyplay-X.Y-sign-cert.der file to "Trusted Publishers"/"Certificates". If the installer still shows that the publisher is unknown, add this file also to "Trusted Root Certification Authorities".

To install IMYplay, just double-click to run, and follow the displayed steps: choose what to install and where to install.
