### The ZIP Package

On the orders page, click on "Multiview for NDI". Check the links section to find the latest download for Windows, Mac, or Linux. This will download the application in a ZIP file.

Once the ZIP file is downloaded, extract it to your hard disk. The application is portable and doesn't require any installation. We typically like to extract it to `C:\toolsforndi\mv` , but you can place it wherever you want.

### Starting Multiview for NDI

Inside the folder where you extracted the ZIP package, double-click on `Tractus.Ndi.Multiview.SWEngine.exe`.&#x20;
