After you have downloaded the installer just double-click on it to start it.

Choose All Users if you have administrator access

You are first asked whether you want to install it for your own account or for all users. If you have administrator access to your computer we recommend the All Users option. SnipSVG will then be saved in the standard Program Files directory on Windows.

The Me Only option – use also for Portable mode

Choose this option if you don't have administrator access or for trying out the program quickly. Also choose this option for Portable mode if you want to install the program on a USB thumb drive or removable external drive.

Basic installation

Selecting either of these options starts the setup wizard. Click Next, check and confirm the software agreement, then choose where you want to install the program. We recommend just accepting the default location.

Portable mode

The screen for choosing the installation location includes an option for a "portable" installation. This allows you to install SnipSVG on a USB thumb drive or removable external drive. Then it will install all its reference files together with the main program so that you can move it around.

Use the Me Only option for this (see above), otherwise you will be asked for administrator rights and the installer will select Program Files as the default location.

Options and installation

After this, continue to select your options for the Start menu folder, desktop shortcut and Start menu entry. Here too, you can generally just accept the defaults. Then select Install in the final screen to install the program.

Installing for macOS couldn't be easier:

1.Double-click on the downloaded installation file to open it.

2.Drag the SnipSVG icon in the window shown onto the Applications folder icon.

That's it. SnipSVG is then installed.
