## Installing Windows Terminal Canary
Windows Terminal Canary is a nightly build of Windows Terminal. This build has the latest code from our `main` branch, giving you an opportunity to try features before they make it to Windows Terminal Preview.
Windows Terminal Canary is our least stable offering, so you may discover bugs before we have had a chance to find them.
Windows Terminal Canary is available as an App Installer distribution and a Portable ZIP distribution.
The App Installer distribution supports automatic updates. Due to platform limitations, this installer only works on Windows 11.
The Portable ZIP distribution is a portable application. It will not automatically update and will not automatically check for updates. This portable ZIP distribution works on Windows 10 (19041+) and Windows 11.
