This website provides QEMU related documentation and binaries (installers) for 32 bit and 64 bit versions of Microsoft Windows.

Please note that newer versions of QEMU require at least Windows 8.

The installers are built from my latest QEMU sources and are updated frequently. The required cross packages from msys2 must be installed in /mingw64. They are typically updated before each new build. See the build script make-installers-all or the GitHub workflow (both are included in the sources) for details.

QEMU for Windows is experimental software and may contain even serious bugs, so use the binaries at your own risk.
