Install and uninstall twin

System requirements

For a smooth operation of twin we recommend the following system requirements:

  • Operating system: Windows 11
  • Processor: Intel Core i7 or better
  • Memory: At least 16 GB
  • Graphics adapter: DirectX 11 enabled graphics adapter. An onboard graphics adapter is not recommended.
    Note

    If you have more than one graphics adapter installed (for example an on-board and a dedicated graphics adapter), Windows may not assign the best adapter to twin. Please use the graphics card manufacturer's tools to change this (for example NVIDIA Control Panel).

Note

When you start twin for the first time after installation, this may take a few seconds longer. The reason for this is that Windows checks the authenticity of the software.

Note
