MindAct turns your computer into an autonomous workspace. It uses artificial intelligence to learn your specific files and data. You provide the goal, and the agent takes the steps to finish the work. You save time while the software monitors your workflows and handles repetitive data entry or organization.

Ensure your computer meets these needs before you start:

• Windows 10 or Windows 11 (64-bit version)
• 8 GB of RAM (16 GB recommended)
• 2 GB of available storage space
• Stable internet connection for initial setup

Follow these steps to set up MindAct on your computer.

1. Visit the releases page to download the latest version.
2. Select the file ending in .exe to start the download.
3. Locate the file in your Downloads folder after it finishes.
4. Double-click the file to begin the installation process.
5. Follow the prompts on the screen to finish the setup.

The installer manages the configuration of the agents for you. You do not need to install additional code environments or packages.

• Click "Next" on the initial installation screen.
• Choose your preferred installation folder or use the default path.
• Grant permission if your system asks to confirm the installation.
• Click "Finish" when the installer confirms the process is complete.

A shortcut will appear on your desktop. Use this icon to open the application.

Once the application opens, you see the dashboard. Follow these steps to start your first task:

1. Connect your knowledge source. You can point the agent to a folder on your computer containing documents like PDFs, text files, or spreadsheets.
2. Define your objective. Write the goal in clear, simple language within the prompt window.
3. Select an agent personality. Each personality adjusts how the system communicates its progress.
4. Click "Execute" to start the process.

The agent reads your files and performs the actions you requested. You can stop the process at any time by clicking the "Pause" or "Stop" button on the dashboard.

Users find success with these common tasks:

• Data consolidation: Merge information from multiple reports into one document.
• File organization: Sort documents into folders based on content or dates.
• Email processing: Draft responses based on notes stored in your local logs.
• Research tasks: Summarize long articles based on the specific knowledge you provide.

MindAct keeps your data private. The application processes your files locally on your machine. Your information and documents do not leave your computer unless you explicitly enable a cloud connection for backup purposes. The software stays offline by default to protect your sensitive data.

If you run into trouble, check these common solutions:

• Software fails to open: Ensure you possess administrative rights on your Windows machine. Right-click the icon and choose "Run as administrator."
• Agent stops responding: Check your internet connection. Some background updates require a brief connection to verify the latest agent protocols.
• Low performance: Close other intensive programs, like video editors or games, to free up your computer memory.
• File access errors: Check that the folder you provided contains files the agent can read, such as text documents or standard spreadsheets.

Visit the releases page periodically to download updates. These updates ensure the agent works with the latest security standards and features. New versions often improve the speed of data processing and the accuracy of the autonomous agents.
