Installing on Windows¶
Check the Downloading Blender page to find the minimum requirements and where to get Blender (if you have not done so yet).
Download the zip-file or Windows Installer File.
Install from Windows Installer File¶
The Windows installer when run will let you choose where to place Blender and configure Windows to have an entry to the start menu and to open blend-files with Blender. Administrator rights are needed to install Blender on your system.
Install from Zip¶
When choosing the zip-file you have to manually extract Blender to the desired folder, where you can double-click the executable to run Blender.
No hay instalador para ubicar Blender en el menú, pero tampoco hay necesidad de tener privilegios de administrador. Con esta opción es posible tener varias versiones de Blender sin que éstas entren en conflicto, ya que estas no se instalan realmente en su sistema.
Sin embargo, si quiere que se registre una versión en particular con su computadora, entonces simplemente ejecute blender -r
desde la Línea de Comandos.
