2/6 - Extract the Ancestris file
  • Ancestris does not need to be installed as it runs directly from its .exe file.
  • So right-click the downloaded ancestris-latest.zip file, choose 'Extract All' and select a destination folder where the .exe file can run.
  • On Windows 7, unzip into the C:\Program Files folder otherwise Ancestris won't run.

  • In the destination folder, open the ancestris folder and then the bin folder; there the ancestris64.exe file will run Ancestris on a 64-bit system, while the ancestris.exe file will run it on a 32-bit system.
