Use these steps to install FileCloud on a Windows 64-bit system.

  • During installation you will be asked to install the Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable Package if it does not already exist. 
  • This installs runtime components of Visual C++ Libraries required to run applications developed with Visual C++ on a computer that does not have Visual C++ installed.  

You can only install FileCloud on the root of the hard drive.

To install FileCloud directly:

  1. Download the installer.
  2. Locate the FileCloudSetup.exe file and run it.
  3. On the Welcome screen, click Next.
  4. In the select Installation drive box, verify that the root of the hard drive is listed, and then click Install. (For example, the location can either be c:\xampp, or d:\xampp etc).
  5. If a dialog pops up during installation and asks you to install VC_redist.x64.exe, click Install.
  6. After installation is complete, the FileCloud Control Panel opens.
