Installation

• Windows Users: The only requirement is .NET Framework 4.7.2 (or newer). If you get a message saying .NET 3.5 is required on Windows 8, 8.1, or 10, enable it with this process.
• Linux Users: There are two options for using ProteoWizard on Linux: native executables or running the Windows executables via Wine/Docker. Only the Wine/Docker option allows converting vendor formats. For Docker instructions, see here. For a native installation, download the native binary tarball, navigate to the download directory. Once there, use 'tar xjvf [archive name].tar.bz2' on the archive and move the pwiz directory into a directory of your choice. PRO-TIP: For convenience, adjust your "PATH" environment variable to include your ProteoWizard tools directory, so that the command line tools may be run from any directory.

Versions

We are formally at version 3. Older versions are archived on TeamCity.

There are several flavors of ProteoWizard depending upon your intended use. If you are primarily interested in using the tools, the binary distributions for your platform are most likely what you want. If you are interested in using ProteoWizard as part of a software project you are developing, you should get the source distribution, or check out the code from our GitHub repository directly. Other packages are also on Teamcity.

Developers interested in building ProteoWizard libraries for use in their own projects will note that there are a few choices for source distributions. Officially, the ProteoWizard libraries and tools are built using the bjam build system, but we also provide alternate semi-official build files for MSVC and for GNU/Autotools (the familiar old "configure ; make ; make install"). Note that these alternate build files do not support vendor DLLs: maintaining that capability is complex and thus limited to the officially supported bjam build. You can read more about it here.
