SteamCMD Download
First of all you need the SteamCMD. You can download it here:
https://steamcdn-a.akamaihd.net/client/installer/steamcmd.zip
SteamCMD Login
Now you need to execute this file.
After a few seconds you can login with the following code:
login anonymous
Server Files Download
Now you need to enter the following in the console:
force_install_dir ./hurtworld_ds/
This will create a folder with the name "hurtworldserver" and it will put in the files in this folder.

Now you can start the download with:
app_update 405100 validate

If the download was sucessful, you have to type
exit
in the console to close the SteamCMD.
Run the Server
To start the server, you just need to open the "host.bat" file.

Yeah that´s it.
And to close the server you simply click on the "X"
Oh, and you need to kill the Hurtworld.exe Task in your Taskmanager.

Frequently Asked Questions
I can not see my server / No one can connect to my server
Please make sure, that you have opened all the required ports in your router. If the everything is set correctly, but the problem still occurs, please contact your internet provider.
Or look for your router model here:
https://portforward.com/router.htm

Is there another way instead of opening the ports?
Yes, you can also host your server through a VPN network like "Hamachi". Of course only the people in the VPN network will be able to join the server then.
If forwarding your ports doesn´t work, please contact your ISP, i won´t be able to help you.

How can i change my server port?
Just edit the bat file with "-port 27015"

The SteamCMD download failed! What should I do now?
Mostly you just need to retry the download, then the problem should be fixed.

How do I update my server?
Just open the SteamCMD and login again, then retry the Step "Downloading the files" it will be checked which files need to be updated.
