  1. Open the Installer that you just downloaded using the above steps. Run it as an administrator when you start it because sometimes it doesn’t work in a normal start.

If you want to install Phoenix OS Pendrive, then select “Make a U-disk.” And if you want to install in your computer then select Install.

  3. Go to control panel and Select Administrative tools.

  11. Then select the Disk you just created for installing Phoenix OS.

  13. Once you select the size, press the install button and wait to complete the installation. It will take up to 15 minutes approximately. It depends on the variant you select of Phoenix OS. If you selected the largest one, then it will take more time, and if you selected the lowest one, then it might complete in 5 minutes.
  14. Once installed you will see a reboot option, just tap on it and wait for setting up the Phoenix OS. It happens automatically after pressing the Reboot button. So, be just wait.
  15. When installation complete, you will set up a wizard which will ask you to set language and WiFi connection. Just finish that, and you will be redirected to the main desktop of Phoenix OS.
