    There is no longer a Windows version of Safari. Apple stopped support of Safari for Windows several years ago.

    Apple no longer offers a version of Safari for Windows at all not even old ones are available for download. . The last version of Safari for Windows was version 5, and it was discontinued years ago.

     

    If you can find one such version to download it is reported it does run on Windows 10, however, you should be very cautious with it, as downloading from anywhere but Apple's website means the installer can and very likely does come packaged with malware, adware and probably viruses.

     

    Additionally such an old browser would be very vulnerable to many nasty things out there since it has not been updated in several years.

     

    Safari for Windows should not be something to consider at this point.

    It's not available on Apple's website anymore, so the only place someone is going to find it anywhere other than Apple's website.

     

    Leepoo, if you need a browser for Windows, my suggestion would be Firefox.  When I had a PC, I used it exclusively and loved it.

    That's what I said.  And why I gave the warning I did.  You can find in form other sites, but not Apple. and getting it from anywhere else is a gamble
