How to download and install software on your computer. How to install the program on the computer

How to install the program from disk to computer?

To begin, insert the disc into the drive and wait for the response of the computer.

Most likely, the autorun disk will open, which will contain the disc menu. But, if nothing appears, then go to "My Computer" (it is located on the desktop and in the "Start" menu).

In the folder “My computer” we look at “Device with removable media” and look for our disk. Most likely the icon of the INSERTED disc will differ from the rest, in my case this is a DVD RW drive H. Open the disc with a double click.



In all "avtorana" there is usually a button "Install", or "Install". After you click on this button, the program installation window will open. These windows often look different, but in principle all the buttons are the same there and you shouldn’t be afraid of them :) Below are examples of such windows:





Always when installing the program you need specify the installation path.The path might be something like this: C: \\ Program Files \\ Program Name.

C: \\   - this is the most important partition of the hard disk, which stores all system files. Only useful files are installed on this disk, i.e. programs, drivers, etc. Other sections (E: \\, D: \\) can store files for entertainment (music, movies, games). Always pay attention to this!

After you have chosen the path, click "Install". The installation process begins. The installation itself usually does not take much time. After installation, click "Finish" and I can congratulate you: you installed the program! :)

P.S. If you install the game, I advise you to compare it minimum requirements  with .

That's all, good luck!

One of the everyday tasks of any user is installing programs. Despite their huge variety and some differences in installation, the overall process and the main points are the same. Let's take a look at the installation process using the example of the free program Winamp, one of the most popular players of music files.

Stage One - File Download

To start installing the program, you need to "get" executable filethat is, it contains a program that can be performed  by computer. Usually executable files have .exe.In most cases, the first launch of such a file opens the installation program, and not the program itself immediately, but it also happens that installation is not required.

In our case, we download the Winampa executable file from one of the first links received in search engine  on request "winamp". It is usually easy to distinguish the program itself from its installer by the .exe file. In the first case, the icon contains only the logo, and in the second case, the logo is on a box or another similar element. Compare two icons, which one of them foreshadows the installation?

Stage Two - Startup and Installation

Installing programs for the user is a series dialog boxes, that is, those that require user participation: agree with something or disagree, select the necessary installation items, etc. Many, without reading, always click “Next”, and then they are surprised that they appear on the computer third-party programsoften malicious.

Do not make common mistakes - follow the installation process, do not click thoughtlessly "ok" and "next"

1.   Often programs need access to important system folders  computer, which by default they are not provided. For the correct installation, you need to do it manually - run them as administrator. There is nothing complicated about that - just right-click on the executable file and select the corresponding item in the list, it will be marked with a shield icon

2.   After that, a dialog box pops up asking whether the program can make changes, in other words, are you sure that you want to install it? Click "Yes", if you do not change your mind


2.a  The following dialog box does not appear in all programs and not always at this stage: language selection

Selecting the language you need from the drop-down box, press “OK” - this confirms your consent.

3.   After agreeing to make changes, the welcome window for the installed program opens. It describes what this program or the latest innovations. In our example, the window looks like this:


4.   Accept the license agreement. Let's not be naive - almost no one reads this point, everyone accepts the terms together, perhaps selling the soul to the devil! But if the conditions are not accepted, the program will not be established, so the choice is small.


  The "accept" button or the like is not always active right away as above, sometimes you need to tick or drag the slider to the right down, simulating a careful reading.

5.   The choice of installation location. Standard item any installation program. By default, the installation goes to the program folder that is on your system disk  (on where the operating system is installed). However, it is not always convenient to install it there (for example, there is not enough space).


By clicking the "Browse" button, you can select any other folder on your computer. After the folder is selected, the installation itself takes place, that is, all files are unpacked and everything is prepared for further work.

6. Creating shortcuts. You are invited to create shortcuts for quick launch of programs: in the start menu, on the taskbar or on the desktop. Choose the items that are convenient for you.


7.   Select file types. A special point that is characteristic of player programs is the choice of file types being played. If you do not know what is needed specifically - leave the default values.


8. Window to complete the installation. Everything! The program is installed. Some require a reboot of the computer in order for all changes to take effect, but usually you can use it right away.


Carefully follow the installation points!

Under the recommended installation often slip unwanted programs. Here is a great example, installing the AudioMaster program (for recording audio) and with it the Yandex.Bar (the toolbar in the browser changes, changes start page  and put the default search for Yandex), and unnoticed, making the names of the installed items gray.


It is necessary to manually not only change the type of installation, but also remove all the checkboxes of the proposed components.


There is nothing difficult in the installation of programs, the main thing is to be attentive and follow the various unpleasant tricks of developers and advertisers who want to slip their product unnoticed.

Instruction

If the computer where you want to install the program enters a local network, then you can use a disk reader on another computer on that network. To do this, you first need to open access to the CD / DVD drive for network users on the computer where it is installed. Then, if you are using Windows, right-click the “My Computer” icon on the desktop of the computer without an optical drive and select “Map Network Drive” from the pop-up menu. The connection wizard will start, in which you will need to specify the device on the network using the dialog opened by clicking the "Browse" button. If an installation disc has already been placed in the device, then after the wizard’s work has finished, the program menu recorded on it will start immediately with a set of options for further actions, including program installation.

Use the file containing the “image” of the installation disk if you do not have access to the disk reader via the network. It is similar to a regular archive, but it contains not only copies of files, but also an exact copy of the structure of their placement on the original disk. This allows using a special emulator program to use the file in the same way as a regular optical disk. If you do not have a ready-made file with a disk image containing the necessary program, you will have to create it yourself.

Install an application on your computer that can create images and restore them from files (“mount”). For example, it could be Daemon Tools Lite - a free version of the program that can be downloaded from the manufacturer’s website (http://daemon-tools.cc/eng/products/dtLite). You need to install it on the computer on which the disk image will be created, and on the one where you need to install the program without using the disk. After installing the application, selecting the “DAEMON Tools Panel” item in its menu, open the control panel and click on the “Create Image” button. Following the instructions of the program, create an image optical disk  and any convenient way  (via flash drive, mobile phone, mp3 player, internet, etc.) copy it to the computer where you should go without the installation disk.

Click the Daemon Tools icon in the taskbar notification area of ​​the second computer with the right mouse button, go to the Virtual CD / DVD-ROM section of the pop-up menu and in the “Drive 0” subsection select the “Mount image” line. The emulator will open a window in which you need to specify a file with a disk image and click the "Open" button. After that, you can use the virtual installation disk of the program in the same way as an ordinary optical disk.

For ease of use, distributions of programs are usually compiled into one installation, which is also an installation filethat deploys when the program is launched on the user's computer. To date, the creation of installation packages is automated and not difficult.

Instruction

Now select files that will be included in the installer.

Assemble the installation file.

It is difficult in our time to find such a user who would not have to install computer programs. They can be downloaded from the Internet or found on disks. Programs can be in the form of installation filepackaged in an archive or run without installation at all. Installation any programs  on a laptop  will not differ from a similar procedure for a regular desktop computer.

To properly install the program, you need to make sure that there is free space on the hard disk of the computer. But do not worry - not every program is able to fill in everything free place  on modern hard drives of large volume. Your device configuration must also meet system requirements. programs. For example, powerful graphic editor  or programs  for video processing, they will be able to work normally only on sufficiently productive computers.

How to install the program on the computer?



In today's world, almost everyone knows how to use a computer. Of course, almost every user can install programs. But still, there are cases when, for one reason or another, a person cannot figure out how to install a program on a computer. In this article we will look at how to install programs on the operating room. windows systemwhat problems users may encounter in the implementation of this procedure.

Ways to install the program on a PC

Install using CD

  1. To install any program using a CD, you will need to insert a disk with a licensed version of the program into the drive.
  2. After that, a message may appear stating that Windows Firewall requires confirmation from the administrator to install the software. Confirm the installation or, if necessary, enter the password.
  3. Next, you need to open the installation package (installer) of the program and wait for the installation wizard to start. This type of installation is called automatic.
  4. But it may happen that the installation wizard does not take effect. Then you need to use a custom installation type. To do this, open the attached text file, which should be instructions on how to install the program, and follow it.

Installing the program using the Internet

Now most users mostly download programs, not install them from disk. To install the program using the Internet,

you just need to download it and then open the installer file.

Then repeat the steps described above, starting with the launch of the installation wizard. I would like to note that on the one hand such a method is more convenient than installing programs using a disk, but at the same time it carries a certain risk. It is possible that the program you download from a network resource may be malicious. Therefore, it is recommended to download programs only from trusted resources.

Installing the program using a local network

Every user whose computer is connected to local networkmaybe

use it to install the program. To do this, open the component "Get programs".

Typically, this component is located in the Start menu-Control Panel-Programs-Programs and components. In the last menu you need to select "Install a new program from the network." Then you just need to click the "Install" button and wait for the installation wizard to start.

"Pitfalls" when installing

Recently, many users are faced with a number of "pitfalls" when installing a program. The fact is that many software manufacturers integrate additional applications into the installation wizard, many of which are not needed by the user. For example, when installing any program

(AIMP or others.) The user is prompted to install elements of Yandex (or Mail), ostensibly for better program performance.

Therefore, it is worth to be more careful during the launch of the installation wizard, which always asks the user about the need to install this or that additional software. Simply remove the checkmarks in front of those products that you do not need. Even if the installation wizard strongly recommends them.

Batch download programs- this is what only select advanced users have known until recently. Previously, it was possible to download software from different developers with the help of English-language services, known mainly to system administrators and geeks. Now we have InstallPack, a Russian-language application for batch downloading of programs, designed for users of any level.

Advise software to install free software

Other questions about InstallPack

Step 1

Download the InstallPack application. You can do it from our website or from the official website: https://installpack.net/.

Step 2

Run the application and get acquainted with the interface. In the main window - a list of programs available for download. They can be sorted in alphabetical order by clicking on the "Name" tab, or by category - by clicking on the "Category" tab. The last option will certainly help when you know what the program is for, but do not remember what it is called. Opposite each of the applications you can also see its rating, price, size and a brief description.

Step 3

We will review the finished sets of programs by going to the dropdown, where “TOP-100” is selected by default. Here you should pay attention to the “Must have” package - it will be especially useful after reinstall windows. In the package "Patriot" you will find software from Russian developers. As for the others, their names speak for themselves.

Step 4

For convenience and time saving, we will use search linelocated in the upper left corner of the interface. Just start typing the first letters of the program, and you will immediately see it at the very top of the list. For example, if you set out to find opera browser, type on the keyboard Latin "op" - that will be enough.

Step 5

The programs we need are ticked. You can also put a tick in front of the inscription "Silent installation" - thus, we will save ourselves from notifications, which, as a rule, come from the installation wizard during installation. Programs will be installed alternately to minimize the impact on the CPU load.

Step 6

Finally, close InstallPack and make sure that the application shortcut is saved on the Desktop. Just in case, we recommend saving InstallPack to the USB flash drive as well - since the application runs without installation, it can also be used as a portable version. We will be able to quickly and conveniently install several programs at once in various situations, be it reinstalling the system, buying a new computer or working on a new project.
