Download
Description
The following redistribution package must be installed in order to run this application.
If you have not installed it yet, please download it from above and install it on your PC.
If you do not want to install the redistribution package, you can start the program by manually placing the following DLLs in C:/Windows/System32/ or in the same directory as the EXE.
At least MSVCP140.DLL
, VCRUNTIME140.DLL
, and MFC140U.DLL
are required.
(*Not required for v1.3 or earlier versions)
As a reminder, waifu2x uses the GPU to do the upscaling. Although processing is possible with the built-in graphics, using the GPU allows for faster conversion.
If you want to convert a video, you need to split the frame before upscaling, which takes a lot of time.
