Program Installation
Download the files
Download the latest release from the releases page on GitHub:
Unzip to a folder
Make a new folder in an easily accessible location, as this is where the program files will be stored, and is a folder you’ll need to modify often. You can call it whatever you want, but a name like SPL-OBS

Then, extract the contents of the file you downloaded into the folder.
It should now look something like this:
Make sure the app icons are visible, if not, you might not have extracted the files:
