# Installation

> Install the Chatterbox Desktop App for Windows from CAMB AI Studio.

This guide walks you through installing the Chatterbox Desktop App for Windows from CAMB AI Studio. Follow each step in order — the process is quick and safe, and you can always go back if you need to review a setting.

<Warning>
  A system reboot is **mandatory** at the end of the installation so that the virtual audio drivers can be correctly installed and activated. If you skip the reboot, the app will not function as expected.

2. In the left-hand sidebar, scroll down to the **Platform** section.

<Info>
  Restarting your system is required so that the virtual audio drivers used by Chatterbox are correctly installed and activated.

## What's next

After your computer reboots:

* Open Chatterbox from the Start Menu or desktop shortcut.
* Sign in with your CAMB AI Studio account to connect Chatterbox to your workspace.
* Continue to [Verify your setup](/other-products/chatterbox/setup-verification) to confirm the audio drivers are working before joining a live meeting.

If anything doesn't look as described above, you can safely close the installer and start again from your Downloads folder.
