Download and install

  • Download the packages open-watcom-c-win32-1.7a.exe and open-watcom-f77-win32-1.7a.exe from one of the mirrors listed here: http://www.openwatcom.org/index.php/Download. The open-watcom-f77 is only needed if you are interested in Fortran development.
  • Install both packages by double-clicking the exe files. For both packages choose the same directory (without a space in the name), e.g. C:\Development\WATCOM or C:\WATCOM. There is no need to change any other settings, if you want to develop for the Windows platform.
