The download for Ezilathe we found does not have a install file.
Can someone please help.

Ezilathe does not need an install file, the directions are in the PDF.

If you extract to C:\Ezilathe directory (create manually), and then copy the the files from the sample directory (imperial or metric) to the same directory, It should work.
And yes it is checked out on Windows 10.

2 possibilities, You have downloaded the update version (Missing data files to avoid overwriting your data), or downloaded the full version, but not moved the required files to C:\Ezilathe. If the former, you will need to Download the full version (Keep the update .exe file, and copy it back to C:\Ezilathe.
Once the full version is downloaded, Copy all the datafiles from your choice (Metric or Imperial) directory directly into C:\Ezilathe. Both sample directories contain the Missing file + sample setup files to get you going, sample directories can be deleted at this point.
Ezilathe should now run in your choosen units, ready to customize to suit your needs.
If still no luck, then check the name of your directory it must be C:\Ezilathe.
Hope this helps. Another thread is also in this Forum, it has many questions and answers in it, It is one of the two "Sticky" threads listed at the top of this forum.

All is possible. Radius mode arcs can be easily added as an option but are generally not as reliable as center format. I Assume you have a controller other than Mach 3 or 4.
To add Radius format will require a program update, so not available immediately as other work in progress. Sent you an email.
