To install Ekiga on Windows, download either the stable or unstable release, and run it:

• Ekiga 3.3.2 unstable (20MB) The current unstable release.

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).
