A repository of precompiled Windows binaries (winutils.exe, hadoop.dll, hdfs.dll) needed to run Hadoop natively on Windows. It continues the work of the older steveloughran/winutils project with updated builds for various Hadoop versions.

Use cases

  • fix 'no native library' error when running Hadoop on Windows
  • set up Hadoop development environment on Windows
  • run Spark or Hive locally on Windows requiring winutils
  • download hadoop.dll and hdfs.dll for Windows
  • resolve ACCESS_DENIED (access0) error with Hadoop on Windows

When to choose

  • you need to run Hadoop, Spark, or Hive on a Windows machine and hit native library errors
  • you want prebuilt winutils binaries instead of compiling Hadoop native code yourself

When to avoid

  • you run Hadoop on Linux or macOS where winutils is unnecessary
  • you need a production-grade, officially supported Hadoop Windows distribution
