************************************************
Installation of ESP-IDF and Tools on Windows
************************************************
:link_to_translation:`zh_CN:[中文]`
This section describes how to install ESP-IDF and its required tools on Windows using the Espressif Installation Manager (EIM).
.. note::
This document describes the default and recommended way to install ESP-IDF v6.0 and newer versions. ESP-IDF also supports the :doc:`legacy method for updating ESP-IDF tools on Windows <windows-setup-update-legacy>`.
Step 1: Install the Prerequisites (Optional)
============================================
During ESP-IDF installation, the EIM automatically checks for required prerequisites and prompts you to install any missing prerequisites.
If automatic installation fails, you can install these prerequisites manually:
- `Git <https://git-scm.com/install/windows>`_
- `Python <https://www.python.org/downloads/windows/>`_
.. note::
Python 3.10 is the minimum supported version for ESP-IDF.
For the Python version required by the EIM, please refer to the `EIM documentation <https://docs.espressif.com/projects/idf-im-ui/en/latest/prerequisites.html#python-version>`_.
Step 2: Install the EIM
=======================
You can install the EIM using one of the following methods:
- Download the EIM

You can choose either an online or offline installer, available in Graphical User Interface (GUI) or Command Line Interface (CLI) versions.
- Install the EIM with Package Manager `WinGet <https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/package-manager/winget/>`__
- Install the Graphical User Interface (GUI) or Command Line Interface (CLI):
- GUI:
.. code-block:: bash
winget install Espressif.EIM
- CLI:
.. code-block:: bash
winget install Espressif.EIM-CLI
- This method makes it easy to keep EIM up to date with a single command.
