Installing on Windows/pt-br

Você pode instalar o FreeCAD no Windows baixando um dos instaladores abaixo:

Após baixar o arquivo .exe (NSIS Installer), clique duas vezes nele para iniciar o processo de instalação.

Abaixo estão mais informações sobre algumas opções técnicas. No entanto, a maioria dos usuários não precisa mais do que os arquivos .exe acima. Vá para Introdução após completar a instalação.

Instalação simples do instalador NSIS
A maneira mais fácil de instalar o FreeCAD no Windows é usando o arquivo de instalação para download acima. Esta página descreve o uso e as características do Instalador NSIS para mais opções de instalação.

Se você quiser baixar a versão de desenvolvimento (que pode ser instável), veja a página Download.

Chocolatey
Entretanto, é altamente recomendado que você use um gerenciador de pacotes como o Chocolatey para manter seu software atualizado. Você pode instalar Chocolatey seguindo estas instruções e depois abrir um terminal PowerShell como administrador e executar:

de vez em quando, você pode atualizar seu software com

para obter a última versão disponível no repositório Chocolatey. Se houver algum problema com o pacote Chocolatey, você pode entrar em contato com os mantenedores em esta página.

Instalação usando a linha de comando
Com o utilitário de linha de comando msiexec.exe, recursos adicionais como a instalação não interativa e a instalação administrativa estão disponíveis. Veja os exemplos abaixo.

Instalação não interativa
With the command line

installation can be initiated programmatically. Additional parameters can be passed at the end of the command line, for example

Interface de usuário limitada
The amount of user control permitted by the installer can be controlled with /q options:


 * /qn - No interface
 * /qb - Basic interface - display only a progress dialog with Cancel button
 * /qb! - Like /qb, but hide the Cancel button
 * /qr - Reduced interface - display all dialogs that do not require user interaction (skip all modal dialogs)
 * /qn+ - Like /qn, but display "Completed" dialog at the end
 * /qb+ - Like /qb, but display "Completed" dialog at the end

Diretório de destino
The property TARGETDIR determines the root directory of the FreeCAD installation. For example, a different installation drive can be specified with

The default TARGETDIR is [WindowsVolume\Programm Files\]FreeCAD.

Instalação para todos os usuários
Adding

causes an installation usable by all users. By default, a non-interactive (/i) installation makes the package usable by the current user (the one performing the installation) only; an interactive installation presents a dialog which defaults to "all users" if the user performing the installation is sufficiently privileged.

Seleção de recursos
A number of properties allow selection of features to be installed, reinstalled, or removed. The set of features for the FreeCAD installer is


 * DefaultFeature - install the software proper, plus the core libraries
 * Documentation - install the documentation
 * Source code - install the sources
 * ... ToDo

In addition, ALL specifies all features. All features depend on DefaultFeature, so installing any feature automatically installs the default feature as well. The following properties control features to be installed or removed


 * ADDLOCAL - list of features to be installed on the local machine
 * REMOVE - list of features to be removed from the local machine
 * ADDDEFAULT - list of features added in their default configuration (which is local for all FreeCAD features)
 * REINSTALL - list of features to be reinstalled/repaired
 * ADVERTISE - list of features for which to perform an advertise installation

There are a few additional properties available; see the MSDN documentation for details.

With these options, adding

installs the interpreter itself and registers the extensions, but does not install anything else.

Desinstalação
Com

FreeCAD can be uninstalled. It is not necessary to have the MSI file available for uninstallation; alternatively, the package or product code can also be specified. You can find the product code by looking at the properties of the Uninstall shortcut that FreeCAD installs in the start menu.

Instalação administrativa
Com

an "administrative" (network) installation can be initiated. The files get unpacked into the target directory (which should be a network directory), but no other modification is made to the local system. In addition, another (smaller) msi file is generated in the target directory, which clients can then use to perform a local installation (future versions may also offer to keep some features on the network drive altogether).

Currently, there is no user interface for administrative installations, so the target directory must be passed on the command line.

There is no specific uninstall procedure for an administrative install - simply delete the target directory if no client uses it anymore.

Advertisement
Com

it would be possible, in principle, to "advertise" FreeCAD to a machine (with /ju to a user). This would cause the icons to appear in the start menu and the extensions to become registered, without the software actually being installed. The first usage of a feature would cause that feature to be installed.

The FreeCAD installer currently only supports advertisement of start menu entries, but no advertisement of shortcuts.

Instalação automática em um grupo de máquinas
With Windows Group Policy, it is possible to automatically install FreeCAD on a group of machines. To do so, perform the following steps:
 * 1) Log on to the domain controller
 * 2) Copy the MSI file into a folder that is shared with access granted to all target machines.
 * 3) Open the MMC snapin "Active Directory users and computers"
 * 4) Navigate to the group of computers that need FreeCAD
 * 5) Open Properties
 * 6) Open Group Policies
 * 7) Add a new policy, and edit it
 * 8) In Computer Configuration/Software Installation, choose New/Package
 * 9) Select the MSI file through the network path
 * 10) Optionally, select that you want FreeCAD to be de-installed if the computer leaves the scope of the policy.

Group policy propagation typically takes some time - to reliably deploy the package, all machines should be rebooted.

Instalação no Linux usando o Crossover Office
You can install the windows version of FreeCAD on a Linux system using CXOffice 5.0.1. Run msiexec from the CXOffice command line. Assuming the install package is in the "software" directory on drive "Y:":

FreeCAD is running, but it has been reported that the OpenGL display does not work, like with other programs running under Wine i.e. Google SketchUp.
