Install and upgrade

Windows

Installer

Run Vibern-Setup-x64.exe. The default install path is:

C:\Users\<name>\AppData\Local\Programs\Vibern

Config and session data live in:

C:\Users\<name>\AppData\Roaming\Vibern

Uninstall from Settings → Apps. That leaves your config directory in place; delete the Roaming\Vibern folder above if you want a clean slate.

Portable build

Unzip Vibern-x64.zip anywhere and run Vibern.exe. The portable build keeps config in a data subfolder next to the executable and never touches the registry, which suits USB drives and managed machines.

Linux

AppImage

chmod +x Vibern-x86_64.AppImage
./Vibern-x86_64.AppImage

Install AppImageLauncher if you want it registered in your desktop menu.

deb package

sudo apt install ./vibern_amd64.deb

Config goes to ~/.config/vibern, session data to ~/.local/share/vibern.

Missing libraries

Minimal distributions sometimes lack the GUI libraries:

sudo apt install libgtk-3-0 libblkid1 liblzma5 libsecret-1-0

Upgrading

Vibern checks for updates on launch and shows a badge in the title bar. Click it to download and replace in place; config and sessions are preserved.

Portable and AppImage builds are not replaced automatically. Download the new package and overwrite it yourself.

Where your data lives

Content	Windows	Linux
App config	%APPDATA%\Vibern\config.json	~/.config/vibern/config.json
Session history	%APPDATA%\Vibern\sessions	~/.local/share/vibern/sessions
Time machine snapshots	.vibern/snapshots in the project	same
Logs	%APPDATA%\Vibern\logs	~/.local/share/vibern/logs

Moving to a new machine? Copy the config directory across and you are back where you left off.

Snapshots live with the project. Add .vibern to .gitignore so they stay out of your commits.
