First, remember run the following commands:
 apt-get update 
 apt-get upgrade
 apt-get install python-pip

Then just run "requirements.txt" file using the command pip install -r requirements.txt

But if you prefer to install the packages separately, follow the instructions for each case:

* PEfile: https://github.com/erocarrera/pefile 
 apt-get install python-pefile 

* Magic: https://pypi.python.org/pypi/python-magic
 pip install python-magic

* SSDeep: https://pypi.python.org/pypi/ssdeep/3.2
 pip install ssdeep

* FuzzyHashLib: https://pypi.python.org/pypi/fuzzyhashlib
 pip install fuzzyhashlib

This package is required for get SDHash data, but if you have any problem with package install process, can install SDHash separately:
    * SDHash: https://pypi.python.org/pypi/sdhash
      pip install sdhash
        
Maybe you need install requires distributions for SDHash separately. Please use following commands:
  pip install NumPy or visit https://pypi.python.org/pypi/numpy
  pip install SciPy or visit https://pypi.python.org/pypi/scipy
  pip install Pillow

***** By default, SDHash option is disabled because the string is too long. If you want to know this data, please uncomment the line 83, or line "print Fore.WHITE + Style.NORMAL + "SDHash: %s" % Style.DIM + fuzzyhashlib.sdhash(data).hexdigest()" and save change.

***** Fuzzy-Hash Algorithms just show data, this process don't compare files.
