![](/files/bV66cgZUHAhsDBXbIqYV)

## Installing CS:Govern (Windows)

Installing CS:Govern takes a few seconds and does not touch any system files or registry values. You should not need an administrator.

* Make sure your computer meets the prerequisites.
  * All required software is packaged in the download as long as a Win64 version of the application is selected.
* Download CS:Govern from CapStorm.
* Change to the directory containing the directory *CopyStorm* (this is the directory in which CopyStorm is installed and is often **C:/capstorm**). Be sure that you have administrative privileges on this directory so that you can unzip the download into this location (see the next step.)
* Unzip the downloaded zip file into the same the directory as the step above. A directory named *CSGovern* will be created at the same level as *CopyStorm*.
* Go to the CSGovern directory and:
  * Double click on CSGovern.bat

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://learn.capstorm.com/cs-govern/installation-instructions/csgovern-installation-windows.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
