How do I install GROMACS on Windows 10?! I just installed CMake, Virtual Studio and Intel MKL. I’m new to all of this and the process so far has been confusing and annoying to say the least. Every video I watch just leads to more confusion as I can’t even seem to download to right tar file from their website?! Please help. GROMACS version: 2020 GROMACS modification: Yes/No Here post your question ---

Did you check [http://manual.gromacs.org/documentation/current/install-guide/index.html#building-on-windows](http://manual.gromacs.org/documentation/current/install-guide/index.html#building-on-windows) ? Have you searched the emailing list as well? There will be discussions there were others have been installing on Windows. (BTW, Windows is challenging from all I recall seeing). Would recommend you specify what you have tried and why it failed so people can see exactly what you have done and where to direct you to next. ---
