Installation

Mistly comes in two forms, both available on the download page and in the GitHub releases. Both update themselves.

Installer (recommended)#

1. Download Misty-Setup-<version>.exe.
2. Run it and follow the steps. You can choose to add a desktop shortcut.
3. Start Mistly from the Start menu.

What the installer does:

• installs Mistly in %LOCALAPPDATA%\Programs\Misty, without administrator rights;
• adds a Start menu shortcut (and a desktop one if you asked for it);
• registers Mistly in Windows' Installed apps, so you can uninstall it cleanly.

Portable version#

1. Download Misty-<version>.zip.
2. Extract it wherever you like, for example on a USB drive.
3. Run Misty-<version>\Misty.exe.

Nothing is installed in Windows. The game data still goes to %LOCALAPPDATA%\Misty on the PC you play on. See Files and folders.

Both versions use the same data folder: you can switch from one to the other without losing your profiles, worlds or settings.

Nothing else to install#

Misty.exe contains everything it needs: fonts, translations and images. Java is downloaded automatically when a Minecraft version needs it.

Uninstall#

• Installer: uninstall Mistly from Settings → Apps → Installed apps in Windows. Your game data (versions, profiles, worlds) is kept unless you ask for it to be deleted.
• Portable: delete the extracted folder.

To erase all game data as well, use Delete everything in the Storage card of Settings before uninstalling, or delete %LOCALAPPDATA%\Misty yourself.

Deleting the data folder also deletes the worlds of every profile. Back up the saves folders you want to keep first.
