I'm a bit confused as to which download(s) I need for org-mode on Windows 10 64 bit. Also which emacs? Also perhaps some other unix commands. I'm running a fairly new but low-power/cheap laptop. I might be open to dual booting, but want to be able to run it on Windows as well. Sep 12, 2017 Download emacs-w64 for free. 64-Bit GNU Emacs for MS Windows with optimization. A GNU Emacs binary distribution for users who want to use Emacs natively in 64-Bit Windows (x8664). This project will focus on providing unmodified, up-to-date (from git master and newest release), and optimized w64 binary builds.
- Please don't use switches that make debugging hard or impossible when you build pretest or snapshot binaries. The main purpose of these binaries is to report bugs in Emacs, which is hardly possible when debugging symbols were stripped from the binary, and you used switches such as -fomit-frame-pointer that make C-level backtraces hard or impossible to read. I presume you just use the scripts provided by MSYS2, in which case please convey the above to the MSYS2 people who proliferate these scripts indiscriminately, thereby making the life of the upstream package maintainers harder. Thanks in advance, and keep up the good work!
- Nice project. Thanks
- Very reliable build of the original GNU Emacs on Windows with nothing more or less.
- Very good!

Yesterday Microsoft released the Anniversary Update for Windows 10, which includes the possibility to use Ubuntu Bash natively. The first thing I tried was installing emacs and I noticed it installs version 24.3.1. I'm not sure if I'm in the right subreddit for this, but it might be a good start.
Emacs Windows 10 Init.el
Is there any way to install the latest version or even the 25rc1 through this?
Updating and upgrading of packages didn't help.
edit: I'm a noob in programming and only use it for LaTeX and org.
