Download Whenever You Need To
Did you know that you can download the software any time you need to, like when installing ShipWorks onto a new PC?
In The Hub, go to Settings and click on the Download ShipWorks button in the Desktop Applications section.
-
Follow the process for the web browser you are using to launch the downloaded ShipWorks installer.
-
The ShipWorks Installer wizard will launch and will perform a quick system check to be sure that the computer on which you are installing ShipWorks meets the system requirements. The check happens pretty quickly and will automatically take you to the EULA (End User License Agreement) screen when completed.
We are here if you need us.
We try to make the installation as easy as possible, but if you do run into any issues please click the Need help? Contact Us button to reach out to our Support Team and we will be more than happy to assist you.

Review the license agreement. Then, click the I Accept button.

Verify the install path is correct. This is the location on your computer at which the ShipWorks software will be installed. Then, click Next.
The default location is C:\Program Files\ShipWorks. However, you can change the location by typing the path into the Install Path: field or by clicking the Browse button and selecting a path.

Enter your ShipWorks Username and Password into the appropriate fields on the Login screen. Then, click the Sign In button to connect to your ShipWorks account.
Hint: The username and password are the email address and password you used to create your ShipWorks account during the sign-up process.
Don't have an account or forgot your password?
If you have not yet signed up for a ShipWorks account or if you have forgotten your password, please click on the appropriate link on the Login screen.

Select your desired warehouse for this installation from the drop-down menu on the Location Configuration screen. Then, click Next.
The warehouse locations listed in the drop-down menu are the warehouses that you created in The Hub earlier in the setup process.
Selection cannot be undone.
It is important to be sure that you are selecting the correct warehouse location for this installation of the ShipWorks software. Once the software installation is completed, this selection cannot be changed.

The ShipWorks software will now be installed and linked to a database. When the installation completes you will be presented with the Use ShipWorks screen.

ShipWorks is now installed successfully. Click the Launch ShipWorks button to open the ShipWorks software.
