Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/hibiken/asynqmon/issues/312

When you download the binary for Windows, in the zip file is just a binary file, no extension. When you attempt to run the .\asynqmon command in a powershell window, it just asks what program you want to use to open the bin file? The documentation suggests it's supposed to start a web server. Should this file actually be a .exe file or what? Thanks!

Nevermind, yes, that's exactly what you need to do. Add .exe to the file type and run in terminal!
