# Installation
|
||||
|
||||
zcash-qt-wallet needs a zcash node running zcashd. Download the zcash node software from https://z.cash/download/ and start zcashd. If you are running Windows, you can get [WinZEC](https://winzec.com/)
|
||||
|
||||
## Prerequisites: zcashd
|
||||
zcashd needs to run with RPC enabled and with a RPC username/password set. Add the following entries into ~/.zcash/zcash.conf
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
rpcuser=username
|
||||
rpcpassword=password
|
||||
```
|
||||
zcash-qt-wallet should auto-detect zcashd and WinZEC. If you are running zcashd on WSL, then please set the connection parameters in the File->Settings menu.
