DayZ Platform Launcher — unsigned build

This installer is not code-signed. Windows SmartScreen / Defender may warn on first run.
That is expected for local/dev distributions.

The stable ZIP is self-contained and does not require a separate .NET installation.

Prefer the zip sideload path if you want to avoid the installer wizard:
  1. Unzip DayZPlatform-Launcher-*-win-x64.zip
  2. Run Setup-Sideload.ps1 (registers dayzplatform:// for your user)
  3. Open Settings → set player name → Join
  4. Workshop tab: scan local IDs, load selected server mods from the API, Ensure missing via Steamworks/SteamCMD

The zip contains the managed single-file launcher plus Steam/Avalonia native sidecars.

No admin rights are required for per-user install or protocol registration.
