Installation

To get started with SquidServers, choose the installation method that suits your operating system.

Windows

Graphical Installer

Download the application directly:

Download SquidServers

Download the .exe file, run it, and follow the on-screen instructions to complete the installation.

Mac

Caution

SquidServers on macOS is experimental, and things may not work as expected. See Unsupported Mac Version for more information.

Note

SquidServers requires an Apple Silicon (ARM) Mac. Intel-based Macs are not supported. x32 systems are not supported.

1. Download the .dmg file from squidservers.com/download and open it.
2. Drag the SquidServers app into the Applications folder.
3. Eject the .dmg (optional).
4. Open Terminal (press Command + Space and search for Terminal).
5. Run the following command to allow the app to open (macOS flags it as damaged by default since it is not from the App Store):

xattr -cr /Applications/SquidServers.app

Note

The xattr command is necessary because macOS quarantines apps downloaded from the internet. Without it, macOS will show a “SquidServers is damaged and can’t be opened” error.
