I would like to install KMyMoney 5.2.1 including AqBanking module on a Windows 10 machine.
I am confused with the different links and plaftforms available.
This page for KMyMoney latest stable release without aqbanking support → It provides a working .exe file (name today is [kmymoney-5.2-4600-windows-cl-msvc2022-x86_64.exe]) → all good but no AqBanking
KMyMoney latest stable release with aqbanking support.
There, two links are documented:
a) KDE download server → Unfortunately this link leads to: Error 404 Not Found The requested URL was not found on this server. --- Apache/2.4.52 (Ubuntu) Server at download.kde.org Port 443. Does anyone know if this is temporary or permanent?
b) preview builds shows this choice:
I am not sure where i can find a .exe file here to install KMyMoney.
I know i have to take the row “KMyMoney 5.2 (stable snapshot) (Aqbanking6, Qt5.15, KF5.103)” and architecture = 64 bit (because my Win10 runs on 64bit), but then i do not know which column (portable package, debug package, OBS project).
Does anyone have a hint to lead to a .exe file?
Many thanks for your help in advance.
P.S. I have read these threads already, but i didn’t found how to find a .exe file incl. AqBanking module.
It’s permanent because its maintenance is not automated. I therefore discussed that with sysadmin and we came to the conclusion to simply remove it. The semantic versioning shows the latest release anyway.
This is your solution, because these builds contain the version you look for. It simply needs to be unpacked from the 7z files. Doesn’t that page also provides information how to install it?
I don’t see them, but maybe i misunderstand what is here.
Since i don’t know what differs between these:
portable package
debug package
OBS project
I downloaded 1. and 2., but not 3. from the page, since i don’t know what concretely to download for 3.
I could start the 1. since i found kmymoney.exe in the /bin folder.
I couldn’t start the 2. since i found no kmymoney.exe in the /bin folder.
so the portable package works.
I started to configure the AqBanking account, but i got a failure during the wizard. I will open a new post on this.
You want 1) but also aqbanking 6.6.1 (because of a Runtime Error on Windows) which is included in KMyMoney 5.2.1. 3) is the data to cross-compile it yourself.
Yes, you’re wrong here. If you build on a KF6/Qt6 only version you need a newer version of Gwenhywfar that supports it. Building on Qt5 is supported as before.
ok, so if i understood properly, my runtime error i got yesterday while setting-up Aqbanking is a known issue and the 5.2.1 version should solve it?
That is fine, i can wait for 5.2.1 windows portable version.
The current portable version to download is:
Version 5.2.0 according to the downloadable filename: https ://download.opensuse.org/repositories/windows:/mingw:/win64:/snapshots/openSUSE_Leap_15.6/noarch/mingw64-kmymoney5-portable-5.2.0+20250731+git.1379493c-lp156.557.4.noarch.rpm I guess the production date is July 31st 2025 according to +20250731+ above
when starting the software in Windows 10, the “about KMyMoney” shows: Version 5.2.0
other infos are:
→ OS: Windows 10 Version 2009 (x86_64),
→ KDE frameworks version 5.103.0
→ Qt Version 5.15.14
→ Alikimia Version 8.2.0
→ Aqbanking version unknown (but built against 6.5.11beta)
→ Gpgme build against 1.23.2
→ Gwenhywfar build against 5.11.2
→ KDiagram build against 2.8.0
→ libical build against 3.0.10
So this correspond to your explanation regarding versions of KMyMoney and versions of Aqbanking.
thank you for the explanation regarding the three different downloads
After @Helmut explanations, i suggest this improvement for the webpage https ://kmymoney.org/snapshots.php, so that the target users of the download link become clearer for newbies:
I finally managed to install KMyMoney 5.2 on windows and use the AqBanking plugin connection to download the bank current account’s transactions directly into KMyMoney.
Windows Edition Windows 11 Home, Version 24H2
KMyMoney version 5.2.1
For those interested in the details, here are my steps:
The filename and file extension may sound strange for windows users: mingw64-kmymoney5-portable-5.2.1+20251209+git.25bce936-lp156.796.1.noarch.rpm
no worries, it works on windows.
In the filename, you can read these elements:
#
Element
Explanation
1
64
is the operating system architecture. “32” would be for older computers
2
portable
means it doesn’t need the classical windows installation (which install the files under C:\Program Files), but a “lighter” installation, which can be stored anywhere on your computer.
3
5.2.1
is the version number for KMyMoney
4
20251209
is i suppose the date when the software has been produced ( = compiled)
this file extension is the short for Red Hat Package Manager : a package management format. For us it is a kind of zipped file and has to be extracted.
How to extract the file from the downloaded zipped file? Unfortunately the default windows software cannot extract it. But the good news is, a free software can do it: 7-zip.
Download 7-zip from this website: Download and choose the file corresponding to your architecture (64bit in my case)
Good news: the GUI can be started from C:\Program Files\7-Zip by double-clicking on 7zFM.exe (7-Zip File Manager) as documented in the readme.txt file of 7-zip
Great work @surcouf. Thanks for putting it together. Here is some information to clarify the open points.:
.rpm (RPM is the short for Red Hat Package Manager):a package management format similar to .deb and used by distros like RedHat, CentOS, Fedora, openSUSE and others.
the commit ID corresponds to the first 8 characters of the SHA1 hash value of the commit in the KMyMoney repository from which this version was created. Your example 25bce936 points to it, even though the full SHA1 is longer 5bce9364ac91aafb128db1a62a2c07cf6ff45f3 but points to the same commit. The KMyMoney Help/About screen of non-release versions also contains this commit ID as a suffix to the version.
Thanks ! i have updated the post with these clarifications.
The Help/About menu only shows 5.2.1 as a version number in my windows 11 current installation described above. There are no more precise strings or numbers.
I don’t see the usefull function i see in the linux AppImage versions of the software: copy
I am used to be able to copy all the text of the components, but this feature does not exist in this windows portable version. I can select single lines and copy them, but not all the lines at once. Therefore the screenshot
