Installing or upgrading process for Dolphin on Windows PC or Mac is pretty simple. Go to the download page [https://dolphin-emu.org/download/ here] and extract the latest revision/version of Dolphin into a new folder (preferably named after the revision) or to replace an existing Dolphin folder setup, and you're good. | |||
Dolphin for Windows now use [[Controlling the Global User Directory|Global User Directory]]. By default, it is under <tt>%userprofile%\Documents\Dolphin Emulator\</tt>. You do not need to migrate anything if the previous Dolphin build was {{revision|3.5-2381}} or higher. Otherwise, you may want to migrate every folders besides <tt>\Languages\</tt> and <tt>\Sys\</tt> to there. And if one migrated folder happened to be <tt>\User\</tt> then move all subfolders out of its parent folder. | |||
The older save states may not work between versions. | |||
=== First time setup === | |||
If you're running Dolphin Emulator for the first time, run it beforehands, so it will create new user folder for Dolphin (<tt>%userprofile%\Documents\Dolphin Emulator\</tt>). | |||
*If you want to use old GameCube Memory Card files, place them under <tt>\GC\</tt>. | |||
*Wii NAND dumps should be placed under <tt>\Wii\</tt>. This is optional. You may want to check how to dump your own NAND backup here [[NAND Usage Guide]]. | |||
