# Installation

Once you have successfully downloaded World Creator, double-click the MSI installation file to launch the World Creator installer (which may differ from the screenshot below):

Please follow each installation step until the installer has completed its work. Once installed, you will find a shortcut to the World Creator application on your desktop.

Also, in some cases, the installer may fail to install the Visual Studio C++ redistributables and the .NET Desktop Runtime that are required to run the application. In this case, you will need to download and install them manually. You can find them here:

* [**Visual Studio Redistributables**](https://aka.ms/vs/17/release/vc_redist.x64.exe)
* [**.NET Desktop Runtime**](https://builds.dotnet.microsoft.com/dotnet/WindowsDesktop/8.0.21/windowsdesktop-runtime-8.0.21-win-x64.exe)
