Windows

System requirements : Java runtime (JRE) minimum version 1.6

Note : Java runtime 1.6+ may already be installed on your system, you can type 'java -version' in a command prompt to find out if so, and the version.

Download Options

Just want the app? Download this one if you have a working Java 1.6 runtime (JRE) already or are happy to have the installer prompt you to install one. Choose one of the following bundles instead (below) if you prefer to have a self-contained executable with no extra downloads, or you don't want to change the existing Java runtime on your PC (and it's a lower version than 1.6), or there is some problem it.

App bundled with Java

If you don't have a working Java 1.6 runtime on your system you can download one of these JWrapper bundled zip files. They include a Java 1.6 runtime, so are much bigger files to download.

Note : On the first run there is a JWrapper installation, which takes a little longer. The upside is you also get a start menu shortcut.

No .exe, just a Java "JAR" file

For people who have problems with the other options where Keep Ya Beat does not start at all when you try to run it. We have seen this happen on NetBook systems and it seems to be a problem with running the .exe. Please use the following download which contains a Java "jar" file plus instructions to run it.

Note: You will need to have a Java runtime 1.6+ installed on your system. See above for checking this.

Why confirm the download?

To ensure nothing has changed on the file since we uploaded it. (Changes could result from some kind download error/corruption or even tampering)

This code is a SHA-256 one-way cryptographic hash (Wikipedia SHA-2), we generated it before uploading the file. It's simple for you to now also generate the hash code, which should match the one above, and then you know the files are identical.
