Download

ArgEditor works on all recent versions of Microsoft Windows. For more details, have a look at the System Requirements page.

Before you start editing, please make a backup of your F1GP folder!

Installation

Unzip and place the argeditor.exe anywhere you like, e.g. in your F1GP/WC folder. Then run it from there.

Note: If you are running Windows XP, Windows Vista or Windows 7, your installation of Windows may not feature the Microsoft .NET Framework 4.0 that is required by ArgEditor. In this case, starting the program will display an error saying “The application failed to initialize properly.” If this happens, you should try to download and install the Microsoft .NET Framework 4.0 Client Profile, which can be found here: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=24872
