The file is `soundcloud-desktop_*_x64-setup.exe`. Blue window **Windows protected your PC**: click **More info -> Run anyway**. Other blocks: [Antivirus or Windows blocks the install](/en/fix/antivirus).
It sets up WebView2 itself. That is why the file is big: WebView2 is inside, nothing is downloaded from the network.
Open **Start**, type soundcloud and choose **soundcloud-desktop**.
Click **Sign in with SoundCloud**, allow access in the browser and come back to the app. [More about signing in](/en/account/sign-in)
Updates install in one click: **Settings -> General -> Updates**. [How to update](/en/install/update)
## Other options
It needs WebView2 on the system: Windows 11 and an updated Windows 10 have it, stripped builds often do not. It does not show up in **Start** and you update it by hand: [how to update](/en/install/update). Settings are still stored in AppData.
Installs to **Program Files**, needs administrator rights. Updates in one click.
* Installer (setup.exe): `%LOCALAPPDATA%\soundcloud-desktop`
* MSI: `C:\Program Files\soundcloud-desktop`
* Portable: wherever you saved it
Most of the space goes to the track cache, and you can move it to another drive: **Settings -> Storage -> Cache location -> Change folder...** [More](/en/use/offline#move-cache)
Windows 10 or 11, 64-bit. There is no build for 32-bit Windows or Windows on ARM.
## Didn't work?
Download only from [getsoundcloud.app](https://getsoundcloud.app) (formerly soundcloud-desktop.fun), GitHub [zxcloli666/SoundCloud-Desktop](https://github.com/zxcloli666/SoundCloud-Desktop), AUR **soundcloud-bin** and the project's Flatpak repository. Files from private messages and "premium builds" are not ours. [Forks and builds from strangers](/en/about/forks)
