Stow 0.1.3

  • Signed with a Developer ID and notarized by Apple.
  • Requires a Mac with Apple silicon (M1 or later).
  • Intel Macs are not supported in Stow 1.0.
  • Install: open the DMG, drag Stow to Applications, open it. Stow asks for Full Disk Access only if a folder you choose needs it.

Windows

  • Signed by Josh Parmely.
  • Requires Windows 11 (64-bit).
  • Installs for your user only, no admin needed.
  • After closing the window, Stow keeps running. Its icon may be hidden behind the ^ arrow in the taskbar; Stow tells you this the first time.
  • If Windows shows "Windows protected your PC": new apps can trigger this SmartScreen notice until they've been downloaded enough times, even when signed. Click More info, check the publisher reads Josh Parmely, then Run anyway.

About 36 MB to download on a Mac and 25 MB on Windows, and about 96 MB once installed. Older versions and release notes: Changelog.

After 14 days, Stow is $39 once, for 3 computers, with a full refund within 30 days, no questions asked. See the price.
