# Failed to Run App - Did Not Find the BotEngine Program
When you land here, you might have tried to use the `botengine` program in some form. Maybe you downloaded a script from the [botengine catalog](https://to.botengine.org/catalog), and got this error message when running the script:
> I failed to run the app because I did not find the 'botengine.exe' program.
Or maybe you tried following instructions to run a command in Windows and got an error message like this:
> 'botengine' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.
The botengine program is a tool for developing and running bots, and many guides assume it is registered on your Windows system. To make these guides and scripts work, follow these steps:
+ Download the file from https://botengine.blob.core.windows.net/blob-library/by-name/2021-06-05-botengine-console.zip
+ Extract the downloaded zip-archive. The extraction will give you a file named `BotEngine.exe`.
+ Run the `BotEngine.exe` program, for example by double clicking the file in the Windows Explorer. It will open a window like in this screenshot:
At the bottom, we find this text:
> I see the 'BotEngine' command is not yet installed. Do you want me to install it, so that you can use the 'BotEngine' command from the Command Prompt? [Y/N]:
+ To start the installation/registration, press the `y` key and then the `Enter` key in this Window.

Following these steps will let you run a custom .bat script to point botengine.exe locally instead of on Gitub.
