We no longer support compilation on Windows. To use the unstable version of Dynare on a Windows system, please download it from the [Dynare website](http://www.dynare.org/download/dynare-unstable).
## Windows Subsystem for Linux
Dynare can also be compiled from source for the Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL). The WSL offers Windows 10 Anniversary Update users easy access to a Linux environment. To install the WSL, see https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/commandline/wsl/install_guide
To install most of the build dependencies, make sure that the local `rootfs/etc/apt/sources.list` contains
```
deb-src http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu trusty main restricted universe multiverse
deb-src http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu trusty-updates main restricted universe multiverse
deb-src http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu trusty-security main restricted universe multiverse
```
in addition to the regular ```deb``` entries.
NB: you cannot edit this file from Windows as this will make the file unreadable for the WSL (rendering WSL unable to detect any package). Therefore, use any Linux editor of your choice.
After that, run
```
apt update
apt-get build-dep dynare
```
If you are building the unstable version, you might also need to install other packages required, e.g
```apt-get install texlive-fonts-extra```
NB: it might be necessary to preface your calls by ```sudo``` in case you do not have root access with the current user
After this, prepare the source and configure the build tree as described for Linux above.
