Then head over to the Documentation to finish off. Should you have any questions, have a look through the FAQ and contact us if your question isn't answered anywhere on this wiki.
Installation notes
Ekiga settings are stored in %APPDATA%\ekiga.conf. To find the value of %APPDATA% on your computer (it may be something like c:\Users\root\AppData\Roaming), open a command terminal and type
echo %APPDATA%
You can edit the settings with a editor such as wordpad.
Ekiga is a 32-bit program but it also works on 64-bit machines.
Known issues
- The automatic discovery of users on the same network (called neighbours) does not work on Windows (see: this bug).
