About 微信

WeChat is the instant messaging app Tencent launched in 2011, which has grown into China's largest social platform combining messaging, payments and a wide range of services. WeChat for Windows is the official desktop client that keeps your chats, contacts and groups in step with the phone app.

On a PC you can type with a real keyboard, drag documents and images straight into a chat, use File Transfer to move files between phone and computer, and make voice or video calls. Signing in requires scanning a code or confirming on your phone, which adds a layer of account security. The official page offers a 64-bit installer for Windows 7 and later.

Key features

  • Messages synced with WeChat on your phone
  • Drag-and-drop file and image sending
  • File Transfer for moving files between phone and PC
  • One-to-one and group chats

How to install

“Windows protected your PC”

SmartScreen shows this for apps without a paid signature. Click “More info”, then “Run anyway”.

Antivirus blocks it

Open-source apps are often flagged because they aren’t commercially signed. Check the SHA256 first, then allow it in your antivirus.

Won’t start, or a DLL is missing

Usually a missing runtime. Install Microsoft’s Visual C++ Redistributable (x64) and the .NET Desktop Runtime, then try again.

Check the file

Run this in Command Prompt and compare the result with the SHA256 listed for the cloud file:

certutil -hashfile "%USERPROFILE%\Downloads\file-name" SHA256
