==Dolibarr installation==
It's party time (get out the balloons and cotillions), the moment you've been waiting for so long has finally arrived! We will finally be able to install Dolibarr.


#
===Download Dolibarr===
*Please visit the SourceForge mirrors at https://sourceforge.net/projects/dolibarr/files/.
*Click on the folder '''Dolibarr ERP-CRM''', then on the last version number and click on the file with extension '''.zip''' to download it.
 
===Create folder <code>documents</code> of Dolibarr===
Dolibarr needs a folder <code>documents</code> in which it stores generated documents (Sales proposals, Orders, Invoices, Intervention sheets, Delivery notes) but also documents uploaded by user (Account statements, Supplier invoices, etc.).
 
For security reasons, it is preferable to create the folder <code>documents</code> outside the Web Server (for us '''Apache2''').
 
*With the Windows'''File Explorer''', go to the '''Local Disk (C:)'''.
*Create a new folder <code>dolibarr</code> then double click on it and create again a folder <code>documents</code>. So we get the directory <code>C:\dolibarr\documents</code>
 
===Extract Dolibarr archive===
To extract Dolibarr archive, we will proceed in a similar way as '''Apache2''' using drag and drop technique.
 
*With Windows File Explorer, go in '''Local disk (C:)''' then in directory '''Apache24'''. Finally, go to the '''htdocs''' directory (<code>C:\Apache24\htdocs</code>).
*Create the folder <code>dolibarr</code> then double click on it.
*Double-click then on the Dolibarr archive you just downloaded to open it in a new window of the Windows '''File explorer'''.
*Browse in the archive to folder <code>dolibarr-xx-x-x</code> then to folder <code>htdocs</code>.
*Select all the files in the folder <code>htdocs</code> by using the '''Select all''' button of the '''Select''' group of the '''Home''' tab of the '''Windows File Explorer''' (or by using the keyboard shortcut Ctrl + A).
*Drag the selected files to the folder <code>dolibarr</code> created previously (in the other window).

Because of the large number of files provided with Dolibarr and depending on the speed of your hard drive or SSD, decompression can take several minutes.
