Peace Equalizer, interface Equalizer APO Files

Note: Your virus scanner may detect a virus in PeaceSetup and/or Peace.exe. This is not a virus but a false positive. More info on this subject is available on the forum, https://sourceforge.net/p/peace-equalizer-apo-extension/discussion/viruses
From version 1.5.0.1 all Peace executables have a code signing certificate by certification authority Certum (Asseco)
 
Run downloaded Peace Setup to:
- install and uninstall Peace, current and previous versions
- back up and restore your configurations (presets)
- configure Peace (which can be done in detail in the Settings window in Peace)
- get help if Peace doesn't work (which actually means Equalizer APO isn't working)

Current size of the download file PeaceSetup.exe is 29,133,128 bytes. This value can be used to check if SourceForge has added some software to PeaceSetup.exe (They don't btw.).

You also can install Peace by moving Peace.exe to the config folder of Equalizer APO. If you want a 64 bit version use Peace64.exe (32 bit is recommended but 64 bit has one benefit: The current configuration icon is shown on the taskbar).
