How to practice MASM (fast) on Windows 11x64?
« on: April 03, 2022, 02:09:38 AM »
Is there a software that allows to write assembly without using extern C or any other "hacks"?
Reading a book about assembly is problematic without a fast way to test the various commands and move data between registers and memory.
Thank you for any help ^^

Yes, it's the Masm32 SDK, see here for a guided installation. No C runtime library required.

Hi redasm-searcher,

Welcome to the Masm Forum.

Programming, especially the assembly languages requires a lot of patience. The same applies for studying books.

Sadly some of the links are dead, wayback machine is the solution: https://web.archive.org/web/20190820000433/http://website.assemblercode.com/masm32/masm32v11r.zip

One of them was dead, it's corrected. Since you are running Windows 11, you need the Windows 10 version anyway (which had only minor changes, Hutch could tell you more about it, it's his baby).

The link:  http://website.assemblercode.com/masm32/masm32v11r.zip doesn't seem to work! The win10 link works.

What happened was I no longer needed that particular web site so I cancelled it. You get tired of paying for things that are barely used. Just use one of the other links.
