## Windows support?

Very basic support for windows is currently available, however because Windows can't support the asdf
backend, windows can use core, aqua, or vfox backends though.
While mise runs great in WSL, native Windows is also supported, though via the use of shims until
someone adds [powershell](https://github.com/jdx/mise/issues/3451) support.

As of this writing, env var management and task execution are not yet supported on Windows.
As you'll need to use shims, this means you won't have environment variables from mise.toml unless you run mise via
[`mise x`](/cli/exec) or [`mise run`](/cli/run)—though that's actually how I use mise on my mac so
for me that's my preferred workflow anyway.

## How do I use mise with http proxies?

### Windows
### Windows - scoop

This is the recommended way to install mise on Windows. It will automatically add your shims to PATH.

```sh
scoop install mise
```

### Windows - chocolatey

```sh
choco install mise
```

### Windows - winget

::: note
winget is coming soon, follow <https://github.com/microsoft/winget-pkgs/pull/197444>
:::

```sh
winget install mise
```

### Windows - manual

Download the latest release from [GitHub](https://github.com/jdx/mise/releases) and add the binary
to your PATH.

If your shell does not support `mise activate`, you would want to edit PATH to include the shims directory (by default: `%LOCALAPPDATA%\mise\shims`).

Note that Windows support is very minimal for now.
