# You Don’t Need Cracks. PyMOL & PyRx Are Already Free. 🧪

**Plot twist:** The software you’re hunting for has official free versions. Better than cracked. Zero malware. Zero “site is down” panic.

* * *

> ## 🎁 What You’re Walking Away With
> 
> A complete cheat-sheet to get PyMOL, PyRx, and **100+ other molecular tools** — all free, all legit, all with working download links.

* * *

### Why This Changes Everything

→ PyMOL’s source code is on GitHub. **Schrödinger publishes it themselves.**  
→ PyRx has always had a free version on SourceForge. You just didn’t know.  
→ You’ve been hunting cracks for software that was never actually locked.

* * *

### ✅ What You Get

- **No malware** — straight from the people who made it
- **No “downloadly.ir is down”** — these links don’t die
- **Updates actually work** — no broken installs
- **University IT won’t flag you** — fully legit
- **Real support** — forums and wikis that actually help

* * *

## ⚡ Copy-Paste Setup (For the Impatient)

```bash
# Install Anaconda first: https://www.anaconda.com/download

# Then run this:
conda create -n compchem python=3.11
conda activate compchem
conda install -c conda-forge pymol-open-source autodock-vina rdkit openbabel

# Done. You now have PyMOL + Vina + chemistry toolkit.

```

**PyRx:** Just download from [SourceForge](https://sourceforge.net/projects/pyrx/files/).

**ORCA:** Register at [orcaforum.kofo.mpg.de](https://orcaforum.kofo.mpg.de/), download same day.
