WezTerm FAQ

Is WezTerm safe to download from here?

We host no installers. Every download button goes to the original source, and the checks below were run on those files.

On 2026-11-04 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: 0 valid, 1 not signed, 1 not applicable (archives and similar).

VirusTotal: 2 of 70 engines flagged WezTerm-20240203-110809-5046fc22-setup.exe. Read the full report before you run it.

Our rating: Medium risk. No check is a guarantee. See the security details above and our Security and Trust Center. Publisher’s website: WezTerm’s official website.

Does WezTerm update itself after I install an old version?

For Windows, we have no information on whether WezTerm 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 WezTerm (see WezTerm’s documentation) before you rely on an older version.

Does WezTerm cost anything?

No. WezTerm is free and open source (license: MIT).

Which versions of WezTerm are listed here, and how far back?

For Windows, we list 17 versions, from 20210814-124438-54e29167 up to 20240203-110809-5046fc22, and for Mac, only the current release (20240203-110809) 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: WezTerm’s official website.
