Installing WEAF POS on Windows: A Step-by-Step Guide
Once you have downloaded the installer, setting up WEAF POS on Windows is straightforward. This guide walks you through installation and the very first launch.
Run the installer
Double-click the WEAF POS installer you downloaded and follow the prompts. The installer places WEAF POS on your computer and creates a shortcut so you can open it easily.
Install the .NET runtime if prompted
If Windows says a required component is missing, install the Microsoft .NET Desktop Runtime 9.0 (x64) and run WEAF POS again. This is a one-time step per computer.
Launch WEAF POS
Open the folder or shortcut and double-click WeafPOS.exe. The application opens directly as a normal Windows program with no black command window in the background.
