I had the same problem, and an error was reported during installation. I tried to run add_tap_device.bat, and the same error

C:\Program Files (x86)\Outline>add_tap_device.bat Creating TAP network device… tapinstall failed. Could not create TAP network device.

@tedzhu it’s not released yet. You can try to manually configure TAP adapter.

Install Outline from release version.
Go to device manager - delete TAP adapter there.
Open cmd
Go to C:\Program Files (x86)\Outline and manually run add_tap_device.bat
Then use Outline Client.
