While the great majority of features in DOSBox-X are cross-platform, DOSBox-X does also have several notable platform-dependent features, such as support for automatic drive mounting, Direct3D output and starting programs to run on the host (-winrun) on the Windows platform. These features cannot be easily ported to other platforms. More information about DOSBox-X's features can be found in the [DOSBox-X Wiki](https://dosbox-x.com/wiki).

Windows binaries (both 32-bit and 64-bit), Linux RPM packages (64-bit), macOS packages (64-bit) and DOS versions are officially released periodically, typically on the last day of a month or the first day of the next month. Please check out the [DOSBox-X homepage](https://dosbox-x.com) and the [INSTALL](INSTALL.md) page for the latest DOSBox-X packages on these platforms and further installation instructions. You can also find ZIP (or Linux RPM) packages for all released versions and their change logs in the [Releases](https://github.com/joncampbell123/dosbox-x/releases) page.
The latest version of DOSBox-X is 0.83.7, released on October 31, 2020. If you use Windows, please note that the default Windows releases built with Visual Studio only support Windows Vista and later (Windows 7, 8, and 10); for Windows XP, the MinGW builds are required. All-in-one Windows installers for DOSBox-X are available to ease the installation process, and they allow you to start DOSBox-X as soon as the installation ends. The Windows installer for the latest official version of DOSBox-X can be downloaded from: [DOSBox-X-Setup-Windows-latest.exe](https://github.com/Wengier/dosbox-x-wiki/raw/master/DOSBox-X-Setup-Windows-latest.exe)

For running DOSBox-X in a real DOS system (MS-DOS or compatible), please use the special HX-DOS builds included in the DOS packages. It is achieved with the help of the freely-available [HX DOS Extender](https://github.com/Baron-von-Riedesel/HX), which is already included in the recent DOS release packages. However, not all features of DOSBox-X that are supported in other platforms can be supported in this environment.
