FreeCAD 0.21 Release
The FreeCAD team is happy to announce the release of FreeCAD 0.21! Details about this release can be found on the wiki v0.21 Release Page
Builds to install FreeCAD 0.21 are below in the release assets. You may need to expand the assets drop-down to see the build for your OS.
Installation instructions
Windows
To install, just execute the Windows installer. Administrator permissions are not necessary when you install FreeCAD only for the current user. In case Windows warns you about a potential risk, you can ignore this and select to install anyway. A standalone version is also provided for users who do not wish to install FreeCAD on their system, but prefer to run it from a thumb drive, etc.
The installer works on all Windows 7, 8, 10 and 11 systems. 32bit Windows, Windows Vista and older are not supported. An installation of FreeCAD 0.21 will not interfere with an installation of FreeCAD 0.20. If you installed a release candidate of FreeCAD 0.21 or a weekly build, it is recommended to uninstall this first.
For administrators, see this page for how to install for several users and silent installations.
NOTE: If upon running FreeCAD you receive errors about missing MSVCP140_1.DLL, install the Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable packages for Visual Studio 2015, 2017, 2019, and 2022 for your architecture.
MacOSX
Binary stable builds (no compiling necessary) are available for both the Intel and ARM (M1/M2) processors. Download the appropriate .dmg below (note that you may need to expand the assets drop-down to see the available packages). To install, open the disk image file and drag FreeCAD to your Applications folder. The build will only work correctly with MacOS version ≥ 10.12. The app is digitally signed by FreeCAD Maintainer Chris Hennes and notarized by Apple.
NOTE: If you are using an Intel processor on a version of Mac OS prior to Mac OS 13 (Ventura), you will need to download the "unsigned" version of the installer, below.
Linux
AppImages, a kind of binary that can run on many Linux distros (no compiling necessary), are available below. Simply download the a--image for your system architecture, change its permissions to allow execution, then run the image.
AppImage (delta) updates
For more streamlined downloading of AppImages download AppImageUpdate (GUI or the command line version). To perform an update:
Using GUI
chmod +x ./AppImageUpdate.AppImage
./AppImageUpdate.AppImage ./FreeCAD.AppImage
Command line
chmod +x ./appimageupdatetool.AppImage
./appimageupdatetool.AppImage ./FreeCAD.AppImage
