I have downloaded Paraview on Windows but cannot find documentation as to how to install and run it. Help would be appreciated
Like any other software on windows.
- Download the installer from here : https://www.paraview.org/download
- Double click on it and install ParaView
- Run ParaView from the start menu

Many thanks for your prompt reply, downloaded and installed it and all seemed to complete without error, however when I came to run it I got a VCOMP140.DLL is missing error message. From searching Google it seems it is a system error and I will have to get some assistance tomorrow to fix it. I am in Adelaide South Australia so it will have to wait for tomorrow. But thanks for your assistance.

It seems that you don’t have the redistributable packages.
You can download it here: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=48145
@ben.boeckel @cory.quammen do you know why this DLL is not included in the release package?
It’s being addressed here: https://gitlab.kitware.com/paraview/common-superbuild/merge_requests/347
Thanks to all of you guys, now up and running.
Had used VTK since early 2000s doing visualisations of the sea bed for a Hydrographic firm but in a linux environment. Find windows an awfull environment.
You guys are a credit to the open source community
