1
Issue Your Download Token

From the Download page, issue a signed download token for your account. Click Download Waters Optimus to save the source package archive.

2
Extract the Archive

Right-click the downloaded .zip and choose Extract All. Place the folder somewhere stable — this becomes your Waters Optimus install directory.

3
Run the Installer Script

Open PowerShell in the extracted folder and run: .\install_optimus.ps1 The script bootstraps a Python virtual environment, sets up your workspace, and prepares the product for first run.

4
Generate Your Activation Token

Visit the Activate page on this portal to generate a signed activation token bound to your account. The token is valid for 90 days.

5
Activate on First Run

Open PowerShell in the install folder and run: .\scripts\launch_public_windows.ps1 On first launch, Waters Optimus will prompt for your activation token. Paste the token from the portal.

6
Access Your Dashboard

After activation, the Optimus dashboard opens at http://127.0.0.1:8789/dashboard. Keep this address — it is your primary access point for the local runtime.

Local Runtime

Waters Optimus is a local-first product. The dashboard runs at http://127.0.0.1:8789/dashboard and does not require a continuous internet connection after activation. Your entitlement is validated periodically and supports an offline grace period.

Troubleshooting
Installer blocked by Windows SmartScreen

Activation token not working

Ensure you copied the full token without extra spaces. Tokens are time-limited — visit the Activate page on this portal to regenerate if expired.

Dashboard not loading at 127.0.0.1:8789

Ensure Waters Optimus is running in the system tray or background. Check that no firewall is blocking localhost port 8789. Restart the application if needed.

Access revoked or expired after install

Contact House of Nuwara support. Optimus supports an offline grace period — check the portal for your current entitlement status.
