Getting Started

Download Emulation Ninja for Windows, Linux, or Mac and complete the first safe install.

Updated July 13, 2026

The desktop app is the foundation of Emulation Ninja. It scans your library, registers your setup, and powers full web features.

Download the right installer

Use the platform cards on the home page:

  • Windows: .exe
  • Linux: .AppImage
  • Mac: .dmg

Windows SmartScreen warning

You may see a blue SmartScreen warning during install. That prompt appears because app reputation signing is still in progress, not because the installer is unsafe.

After install

  1. Launch Emulation Ninja desktop.
  2. Sign in with your account.
  3. Keep the app open until registration completes.

After installation, continue with Connect desktop and web.
