On Windows, you need to place the `PDP7.exe` file you downloaded in [this tutorial](https://setup.virtualhub.eu.org/simh-pdp7#windows) in the VM folder. Then you can follow the above tutorial as usual. The shell script will not work on Windows. You need to rename it to `DECSys-7.bat`. Then you can double-click the file to launch the VM, no need to make it executable.
Now you can start the VM by double-clicking the shell script. See the [manuals section](/1960s/1965/decsys/#manuals) on the [main ! DECSys-7 page](/1960s/1965/decsys) to learn how to use it.
