- AlmaLinux
- Rocky Linux
- Debian
- Windows (Restic only)
- [Windows](#windows-support) (Restic only)

binary files in the running user's `$PATH` environment variable should be able

## Windows Support
Norg does work on windows but requires `libcrypto` and `libssl`. You can just put
these libraries in the same directory as the `norg.exe` binary.
You can also install Nim (which includes these libraries) on Windows and put
the `./nim/bin` folder in your `$PATH` environment variable for these libraries
to be found and referenced.
