Installing

  1. Open the downloaded BurnBadger-Setup file and follow the steps.
  2. Windows may take a moment to scan the new file first. If it then says “Windows protected your PC”, click More info, then Run anyway. It shows for new apps that Windows hasn’t seen much yet.
  3. Plug in your laser by USB (or join its Wi-Fi), switch it on, open BurnBadger from the Start menu and click Connect.
