as you can see on the FreeSurfer download page, you need

either a linux or macOS system to run FreeSurfer natively

(https://surfer.nmr.mgh.harvard.edu/fswiki/DownloadAndInstall).

There are several ways to tackle your problem:

1. get a linux or macOS machine

2. run FreeSurfer within a virtual machine on your windows host, e.g.

using the great NeuroDebian (http://neuro.debian.net/vm.html)

3. run FreeSurfer within a docker on your windows host, e.g.

using the mindboggle docker (https://hub.docker.com/r/nipy/mindboggle/),

which also comes with amazing additional software such as ANTS and mindboggle

4. apparently it’s also possible to run FreeSurfer on windows 10 these days, pls check

here: http://nuclear-imaging.info/site_content/2016/09/12/installing-running-freesurfer-windows-10/

However, I assume most peeps would recommend running FreeSurfer within a system which

was also used for development and testing.

HTH, best, Peer
