How to Install Share on Windows 11

Share is an open-source file sharing tool that allows you to quickly and easily share files with others. In this tutorial, we’ll walk you through the steps to install Share from Github on your Windows 11 computer.

Prerequisites

Before you get started, make sure you have the following:

Step 1: Install Git

If you don’t have Git installed on your computer, you can download it from the official website and follow the installation instructions.

Step 2: Clone the Share Repository

Open your command prompt or Git Bash and navigate to the directory where you want to install Share.

Next, clone the Share repository by running the following command:

git clone https://github.com/MrDemonWolf/share.git

This will create a new directory called “share” and download all the files needed to run Share.

Step 3: Install Dependencies

Before you can run Share, you need to install its dependencies. To do this, navigate to the Share directory and run the following command:

npm install

This will download and install all the required dependencies.

Step 4: Start Share

Once the dependencies have been installed, you can start Share by running the following command:

npm start

This will start the Share server and display the URL you need to enter in your web browser to access the Share application.

Step 5: Use Share

Now that Share is up and running, you can start using it to share files with friends and colleagues. Simply drag and drop files into the Share interface to upload them to the server. You can then generate a link to the file and share it with others.
