I install KingRoot from xda-developers.com (https://forum.xda-developers.com/android/apps-games/one-click-root-tool-android-2-x-5-0-t3107461). No problem. Android 4.2.2 on Samsung GT-P5113 (Galaxy Tab2 10.1)

. . .

Tried this on an old Samsung s4 running Kitkat 4.4.2 ... got to 35% and froze for an hour. Rebooted, nothing stuck.

Tried downloading the PC version from the website, but the software (from an English language page) was in non-English characters, presumably Chinese.
