EmEditor Is Now Even More Secure to Download

EmEditor Is Now Even Safer and Easier to Get

The EmEditor desktop installer is now also available from the Microsoft Store.
The desktop installer available on the Microsoft Store is the same program for both EmEditor Professional and EmEditor Free (you get the same app and use it according to your license/usage).

We have also improved our official website (www.emeditor.com) so you can download EmEditor with greater peace of mind.

  • The EmEditor desktop installer is now available from the Microsoft Store.
  • Even if you cannot use the Microsoft Store, you can still download the desktop installer safely from our official website.
  • Our website has been rebuilt as a static HTML-based site, which helps reduce risks such as website tampering compared to a dynamic site.
  • This website is now hosted on Cloudflare Workers, giving us tightly controlled security. Cloudflare’s role‑based access control and enterprise-grade authentication standards help ensure only authorized changes are made, so you can trust that the content you see comes from us.

We will continue to provide only official installers through our website and other authorized distribution channels.
For your safety, please download EmEditor from trusted sources such as our official website or the Microsoft Store.

Download Desktop Installer from Microsoft Store (Recommended)

For earlier versions of Windows, you can download the installer directly here.

If you download the MSI file directly, please verify that the digital signature is signed by “Emurasoft, Inc.”:

  1. Right-click the downloaded file and select Properties.
  2. Open the Digital Signatures tab.
  3. Confirm the signer is Emurasoft, Inc..
  4. Do not install the file under any circumstances unless the signer is Emurasoft, Inc..

New static, HTML-based websites

To reduce the security risks associated with WordPress, we’ve migrated our websites to static, HTML-based sites. As a result, the likelihood of future security incidents is expected to be extremely low.

As part of this transition, our forums are now available in read-only mode.

Thank you for your understanding.
