Nautilus Setup updated to version 2.4.1147 on Windows 10 and 11
REQUIREMENTS
- BEFORE PROCEED
1)
If you have Microsoft Office
installed on your computer, you must be sure that is the 32bit version, as
Nautilus is not compatible with Office 64bit. To check your Office version, see
this link:
https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/office/about-office-what-version-of-office-am-i-using-932788b8-a3ce-44bf-bb09-e334518b8b19
There is no difference in functionality between 32 and 64 bit versions, so if
you have the 64bit installed, you can remove it and download and install the
32bit version
IMPORTANT NOTE: Just Office must be 32bit, Windows itself can be 64bit
2)
It’s also recommended to temporarily
disable your anti-virus protection, otherwise some system files needed by Nautilus
could not be installed
3) Minimum screen resolution must be 1600x900 px. If you use a lower
resolution, certain areas of application screens can be hidden.
Display zoom/scale is advised to be 100%; it's not mandatory, but if you set it differently, certain buttons on the main menu page needs some tricks to be clicked properly.
To setup Nautilus 2.4 on your
computer, please follow these steps:
1. If you
have not already done, download the full setup or the update file from the Support page, and save it to a convenient location.

click on the “More info” link and then on the “Run anyway” button
2. When the
download is finished, run it as Administrator (click on the file with
right mouse button and select “Run as Administrator”)
If

created. Confirm or enter the desired date and click [OK] to proceed
