We will install some tools first to make installing the dependencies, BasicSR and ESRGAN itself easier.

Chocolatey

Chocolatey is a package manager for Windows, you can also install all of the programs we will install with it in the future manually, if you want to do so, skip those steps.

Chocolatey

  1. Open a PowerShell window as an admin. (On Windows 10 rightclick the start symbol (four squares) then select Windows PowerShell (Admin))
  2. Enter: Set-ExecutionPolicy AllSigned
  3. Enter: Set-ExecutionPolicy Bypass -Scope Process -Force; iex ((New-Object System.Net.WebClient).DownloadString('https://chocolatey.org/install.ps1'))
  4. Close PowerShell (!This is important!)
  5. Reopen PowerShell as an admin.

Nvidia Driver

  1. Enter: choco install nvidia-display-driver

CUDA

  1. Enter: choco install cuda

Python

  1. Enter: choco install python3 --params "/InstallDir:C:\Python3"
If you want to install Python in another location you can just modify the path to whatever you want.

Git (Bash)

  1. Enter: choco install git --params "/GitAndUnixToolsOnPath /NoGuiHereIntegration"
GitAndUnixToolsOnPath will add many Unix tools to your path, optional
NoGuiHereIntegration I don't like the GUI that comes with Git, I recommend to use any other instead this switch will remove the Git GUI entry from the windows explorer context menu.
