Frequently asked questions

How do I install XFOIL on Windows?

Open Windows Terminal, PowerShell, or Command Prompt and run: winget install --id MIT.XFOIL --exact --version 6.99. winget downloads the installer from MIT and runs it. Requires Windows 10 (1809+) or Windows 11.

How do I install XFOIL silently for unattended deployment?

Add --silent and accept the agreements upfront: winget install --id MIT.XFOIL --exact 6.99 --silent --accept-package-agreements --accept-source-agreements. This is the variant Intune, Configuration Manager, and other deployment tools should use.

How do I uninstall XFOIL via winget?

Run: winget uninstall --id MIT.XFOIL --exact. Add --silent for unattended uninstalls. winget will use the registered uninstaller from XFOIL's Apps & Features entry.

Is XFOIL free?

XFOIL is distributed under GNU GPL. Refer to the publisher (https://web.mit.edu/drela/Public/web/xfoil/) for the full license terms - Wingetly itself does not charge for installation.

Does XFOIL work on Windows 10?
