Install and use

README.md

To install an official pre-built multi-platform Ghidra release:

  • Install [JDK 25 64-bit][jdk]
  • Download a Ghidra [release file][releases]
    • NOTE: The official multi-platform release file is named ghidra_<version>_<release>_<date>.zip which can be found under the "Assets" drop-down. Downloading either of the files named "Source Code" is not correct for this step.
  • Extract the Ghidra release file
    • NOTE: Do not extract on top of an existing installation
  • Launch Ghidra: ./ghidraRun (ghidraRun.bat for Windows)
    • or launch [PyGhidra][pyghidra]: ./support/pyghidraRun (support\pyghidraRun.bat for Windows)

For additional information and troubleshooting tips about installing and running a Ghidra release, please refer to the [Getting Started][gettingstarted] document which can be found at the root of a Ghidra installation directory.
