Scroll down and click on the link for the latest version. There is no installation. Simply put the exe file somewhere on your computer and double click to run it. For instance, save the program on your desktop and leave it there. This program is for free. I strongly recommend it. I have contributed to the last version myself. I think it works great. It recognises the verb while you type. Type an infinitive and it will give you full conjugations. You can also type a conjugation and it will tell you the infinitive. To do this, run the program and press F3 on your keyboard. A new window will appear where you can type the conjugation.
