Most operating systems have a package manager, although they may not come pre-installed. Both Windows and macOS have open-source package managers that the user must install. Ubuntu comes with the Snap package manager pre-installed. Package managers download packages, install applications and keep everything up-to-date. They're the easiest way to install IPFS from the command-line.

| Operating system | Package manager | Install command |

| Windows | [Chocolatey](https://chocolatey.org/packages/ipfs) | `choco install ipfs` |

Although we try our best to keep the package manager releases up to date, they sometimes lag behind the Go-IPFS GitHub releases page by a few days. If you'd like to install a release the very same day it comes out, use the [official distributions](#official-distributions) from [dist.ipfs.io](https://dist.ipfs.io).
