Source hierarchy
Stay on fxsound.com, GitHub Releases for fxsound2/fxsound-app, or winget id FxSound.FxSound when you install or update on Windows. Those doors publish the current fxsound_setup.exe family without Softonic-style wrappers that rename the button.
Prefer one update path on this PC. Mixing a machine-scope winget seat with a random portable unzip from a search ad is how people end up with two FxSound folders and unclear Start menu shortcuts. Read AGPL-3.0 LICENSE text before you redistribute modified builds.
Related Windows audio pages cover install, winget, portable-or-exe history, safety, first run, presets, system-wide routing, and the Equalizer APO comparison. Supporting cluster pages for releases, GitHub, and download-safe intent link back to the same FxSound path.
