  • Before this, Windows users had to run Muse Code inside WSL, a Linux environment layered on top of Windows
  • The Windows build works with PowerShell, runs sandboxed by default, and has native builds for both x64 and ARM64 PCs
  • It installs without admin rights, which matters on locked-down company laptops
  • Install from PowerShell with: irm https://dev.meta.ai/install.ps1 | iex
  • Meta says messaging between sessions is coming next
