If you want a precompiled binary, here is the slightly older version: https://github.com/bettercap/bettercap/releases/tag/v2.31.1 (bettercap_windows_amd64_v2.31.1.zip)

which isn't recommended, It's better to install Go, clone the source code, and run the Makefile, It's easy as 1 2 3.

After installing GO, use this command in the GO directory

C:\Users\yourUser\go

go install github.com/bettercap/bettercap@latest

go get: installing executables with 'go get' in module mode is deprecated. Use 'go install pkg@version' instead. For more information, see https://golang.org/doc/go-get-install-deprecation or run 'go help get' or 'go help install'.

Download and install GO: https://go.dev/doc/install

Hi @Gustavomurta,

I've Go(lang) installed and CMake. I can't get Bettercap installed via go install github.com/bettercap/bettercap@latest I get an error that pkg-config isn't installed, but I can only find it for Linux.

Hi Mattew, I didn't have this problem in the installation because I already had pkg-config installed on Windows 10.

See this important tutorial 👍

Clear installation of Gosub on the Windows 10 - using msys64 https://github.com/google/gousb/issues/100

C:\Users\jgust>pkg-config --version 0.29.2 C:\Users\jgust>

C:\msys64\mingw64\bin (pkg-config is here) Change Path at System Variables

I am an absolute noob into the world of coding and compilation. I want to install and test with Bettercap. Do you guys recommend youtube or practice some coding languages first?

How exactly do you run the MakeFile? I have already installed go on my Windows 10 and I have created the git clone for this repository. And now if I want to run the MakeFile on windows 10 cmd it won't run. Anything I can do to get bettercap to run?

You can download make from google or using chocolately if you have it installed (choco install make). And then you open cmd in the bettercap directory, and type make in the cmd

If you don't need hid modules, you can also simply delete all files in modules/hid/ and remove the entries for gousb and nrf24 in go.mod and modules/module.go (and also delete sess.Register(hid.NewHIDRecon(sess)) )
