Usually it is enough to download and unpack Salome.
In some cases it can be necessary to do additional things like installing some missing libraries. For required libraries and how to install them it is recommended to check the DockerFiles.
Here is a list of know issues:
-

@SET SALOME_TMP_DIR=%TEMP%
