  2. Place the executable in any folder.
  3. Open a terminal (CMD or PowerShell) in that folder.
  4. Run: 
    v2vdb-windows.exe
    (Note: The binary is standalone and does not require additional DLLs).

Auto-Update Feature

Once installed, you can keep your database engine up to date without manual downloads:
