What the installer does

Windows

  • Delivered as a WiX Burn bootstrapper (.exe) for x64 and ARM64.
  • Installs for the current user only, so administrator rights are normally not needed.
  • No custom silent switch is declared; winget falls back to its default for this installer type (/quiet /norestart).
  • Declared install modes: interactive, silent, and silentWithProgress.
  • Minimum Windows version: 10.0.17763.0.
  • Upgrades install over the existing version.

Mac

  • Delivered as a disk image (.dmg) for Apple silicon and Intel.
  • Installs the app Moonlight.app into the Applications folder.
  • Adds the command-line tools Moonlight and moonlight when installed with Homebrew.
  • Requires macOS 13 or later.
  • A full “zap” removal also deletes up to 3 support, cache and preference locations in your home folder.

Notes for the Windows release.

Download links: - Windows Installer (Universal) - Windows Portable x64 or ARM64 (for work/public PCs without the ability to install new programs) - macOS (Universal) - Snap (for Ubuntu-based Linux distros) - Flatpak (for other Linux distros) - AppImage (Linux, no installation required) - Raspberry Pi - Generic ARM 32-bit and 64-bit Debian packages (not for Raspberry Pi) - Experimental RISC-V Debian packages - NVIDIA Jetson and Nintendo Switch (Ubuntu L4T) - Steam Link device The Windows installer package may require an Internet connection to download the latest Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime if your PC does not already have it installed. If you do not have Internet access during installation, you can pre-install the runtime from Microsoft's website or use the portable version. To update an existing installation, simply run the latest installer (for Windows) or replace the old app in your Applications folder (for Mac). For the portable Windows version, extract the ZIP into a new folder and copy the Moonlight Game Streaming Project folder from the older version to preserve your settings and paired hosts. Important note for Windows Portable upgrades from v6.1.0 or earlier: If you extracted the portable Windows v6.2.0 ZIP file into the same folder as an earlier version of Moonlight, you must delete qopensslbackend.dll file in the tls folder or Moonlight will crash on startup. To install on Steam Link hardware, extract the ZIP file to the root of a FAT32 flash drive, insert it…

We host no installers. Every download link goes to the download location named in the package listing, normally the publisher’s own server. For this software we downloaded the files from that source ourselves, re-computed each checksum and checked the code signature where our tools could, as shown above. A passing check shows a file is the one that was published; it is not a guarantee it is free of problems. For more information, visit our Security and Trust Center.

To avoid the issue, disable Location Services on your Mac by going to "System Preferences -> Security & Privacy -> Location Services" - In windowed mode on the Raspberry Pi, video does not move in sync with the window when dragged. This is a limitation of MMAL video overlays. - In windowed mode on the Raspberry Pi, video will not display while the app does not have focus. This is required to prevent Moonlight's video overlay from rendering on top of other apps.

Moonlight Game Streaming Client FAQ

Is Moonlight Game Streaming Client safe to download from here?

We host no installers. Every download button goes to the download location named in the package listing, and the checks below were run on those files.

On 2026-11-07 we downloaded the latest 2 installers from those sources and re-computed the SHA-256 of each: 2 of 2 match the package catalog’s value. Code signatures: 2 valid.

VirusTotal: none of its 67 security engines flagged any of the 2 scanned files.

Our rating: Safe. No check is a guarantee. See the security details above and our Security and Trust Center. Publisher’s website: Moonlight Game Streaming Client’s official website.

Does Moonlight Game Streaming Client update itself after I install an old version?

For Windows, we have no information on whether Moonlight Game Streaming Client updates itself, and for Mac, we have no confirmation that the app updates itself, although many apps check for updates and offer to install them. Look for an update setting in Moonlight Game Streaming Client (see Moonlight Game Streaming Client’s documentation) before you rely on an older version.

Does Moonlight Game Streaming Client cost anything?

No. Moonlight Game Streaming Client is free and open source (license: GPL-3.0).

Which versions of Moonlight Game Streaming Client are listed here, and how far back?

For Windows, we list 20 versions, from 2.1.0.0 up to 6.2.0.0, and for Mac, only the current release (6.2.0) is listed, because older Mac builds are not kept in the package listing. This page shows all of the Windows versions.

Where do the download links go?

They go straight to the source named in the package catalog, with nothing added by us: for Windows, to github.com, and for Mac, to github.com. We host no files. Compare the SHA-256 shown next to each file with the one you compute after downloading. Publisher’s website: Moonlight Game Streaming Client’s official website.
