==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.
