eMuleBB

eMuleBB is eMule broadband edition: a native Windows eMule client for long sessions, large libraries, broadband-era transfer behavior, and trusted local automation.

The 0.7.3 release line preserves stock-compatible eD2K/Kad behavior and keeps selected legacy eMule features frozen for compatibility. After 0.7.3 establishes the first stable eMuleBB baseline, future releases can evolve more aggressively while keeping protocol compatibility explicit.

Stable 0.7.3 is published on GitHub Releases. Choose one install path:

Use this path when you only want the eMuleBB desktop app.

1. Open https://github.com/emulebb/emulebb/releases/tag/emulebb-v0.7.3.
2. Download emulebb-0.7.3-x64.zip.
3. Extract the ZIP into a new version-specific folder, for example eMuleBB-0.7.3.
4. Run emulebb.exe.

Keep each version in its own application folder. For first launch or support testing, use a backed-up profile or launch with an explicit disposable profile:

emulebb.exe -c "$env:TEMP\eMuleBB-TestProfile"

Use the x64 package for ordinary Windows desktop installs. Use ARM64 only for ARM64 Windows testing.

Use this path when you want eMuleBB plus aMuTorrent, Prowlarr, Radarr, and Sonarr integration out of the box.

The bootstrapper downloads and verifies the matching eMuleBB release package, resolves the aMuTorrent controller package from emulebb/amutorrent/releases, extracts the suite installer, and starts the install flow. Full installs also download pinned public Node, Prowlarr, Radarr, and Sonarr payloads by default.

Stable release builds and packaging happen in GitHub Actions and are published through GitHub Releases. The 0.7.3 release includes ZIPs, manifests, SHA-256 evidence, SPDX SBOMs, diagnostics packages, the suite bootstrapper, and the bootstrapper SHA-256 asset. The bootstrapper verifies package hashes from the release manifests before installing.
