Troubleshooting & System Requirements

Quick answers and requirements for running the packaged Rekordly Windows app.

System Requirements (Windows)

Supported Operating Systems

  • Windows 10 (64-bit)
  • Windows 11 (64-bit)

Windows 7/8/8.1 are not supported.

Minimum Requirements (Runs, but may be slower)

  • CPU: 2-core 64-bit CPU (Intel i3 / AMD Ryzen 3 class or equivalent)
  • RAM: 4 GB
  • Storage (free space): 3 GB free for the app and its built-in components, plus additional space for recordings
  • GPU: Integrated graphics is OK
  • Internet: Stable broadband connection

Recommended Requirements (Best experience)

  • CPU: 4-core or higher 64-bit CPU
  • RAM: 8 GB or more
  • Storage (free space): 10 GB+ free (especially if you record often)
  • GPU: Any modern integrated or dedicated GPU
  • Internet: Stable broadband (wired or strong Wi‑Fi)

Storage for Recordings

Recording files can become large quickly. Typical space usage depends on stream quality, recording length, and bitrate.

  • As a rough guideline, 1 hour of recording can range from ~0.5 GB to several GB
  • If you plan to record many hours, ensure you have tens to hundreds of GB of free disk space

Runtime Dependencies

  • No separate installation is required for Node.js or Python
  • All required components are bundled with the packaged app

Notes

  • If your region blocks certain sites, Rekordly may require a VPN/proxy depending on your network
  • Performance depends heavily on available RAM and disk speed (SSD recommended)
