How to Install Updog on Windows 10

Updog is a tool that allows you to easily share files from your computer over HTTP. In this tutorial, we will be going over how to install Updog on Windows 10.

Prerequisites

Before we begin, make sure you have the following:

Steps

  1. Open the command prompt by pressing the Windows key and typing "cmd" and then hitting Enter.

  2. Navigate to the directory where you want to install Updog by typing cd path/to/directory and hitting Enter. (Make sure to replace "path/to/directory" with the actual path to the directory you want to use).

  3. Clone the Updog repository by typing git clone https://github.com/sc0tfree/updog.git and hitting Enter.

  4. Navigate to the Updog directory by typing cd updog and hitting Enter.

  5. Install the necessary dependencies by typing npm install and hitting Enter.

  6. Start Updog by typing npm start and hitting Enter.

  7. You can now access your files by going to http://localhost:8090/ in your web browser.

Congratulations! You have successfully installed Updog on your Windows 10 computer.

Note: If you want to make Updog accessible to other users on your network, you will need to modify your firewall settings to allow incoming traffic on port 8090. Consult your firewall's documentation for instructions on how to do this.

If you want to self-host in an easy, hands free way, need an external IP address, or simply want your data in your own hands, give IPv6.rs a try!
