The installer will launch, and you will see the Cozy Cloud installation wizard. Follow the on-screen instructions to install Cozy Cloud on your Windows 10 machine.
During the installation, you will be asked to select the location where you want to install Cozy Cloud. You can either choose the default location or specify a different one. Click "Next" once you have made your selection.
You will also be asked to create a Cozy Cloud user account. Enter your email address and password, and then click "Create account" to proceed. This account will be used to access your personal cloud.
Once the installation is complete, click "Finish" to close the installer.
To access your Cozy Cloud dashboard, open your web browser and enter the URL: http://localhost:8080/ in the address bar. This will launch the Cozy Cloud login page.
