How do I properly install NuSMV since, upon downloading, the bin file does not contain .exe file?

317 Views Asked by At

I am following a tutorial to install NuSMV on Windows 10. It downloads fine but upon extracting the files from the zipped (.tar) folder, I do not find the the .exe file in the "bin" folder which is supposed to be there (of course). I am downloading it from NuSMV website. What could I be doing wrong?

To use NuSMV on Windows, one should

  • fill the following form

  • click either on Register or Do not register, according to their preference

  • select the correct download link from the page that is automatically opened after the last step

    (For Windows that would be Windows Archive 64-bit (x86).)

    enter image description here

  • unpack the downloaded file, which shows NuSMV.exe inside the bin subdirectory:

Q: I followed the instructions but the executable is not there, what should I do? You may want to check whether your antivirus program put the executable in quarantine.

You may use 'command prompt' to start NuSMV interface. I have used it using the 'command prompt in Windows 10.
