	==~~Getting Started with Windows~~==		==Quick Downloads==
	~~Welcome to using Phidgets with~~ Windows!		Our libraries support Windows 8 and newer.

	~~Phidget22 is supported on '''Windows 8 and newer'''.~~

	~~If you are ready to go, the first step in creating Windows applications with Phidgets is installing our libraries.~~

	~~===Install===~~
	~~To install our libraries, download the installer for your system:~~

	[[~~image:Windows_Install.png~~\|~~link=\|center~~]]		===Install===
			To get started, download the appropriate [[#Quick Downloads\|installer]] for your machine from the list above. This will install the Phidget Control Panel, a powerful tool that will help you develop your Phidget applications.

			===Phidget Control Panel===
			After installing, you can find the application through your system tray, or by opening the start menu and searching for ''Phidget Control Panel''.

	~~The libraries are now installed on your machine. Next, let's verify that they are working properly.~~

	~~''For instructions on installing our libraries without an installer, check out the~~ [[~~OS - Windows Advanced Information~~]] ~~page.''~~		[[Image:Os_windows_systemtray.png\|link=\|center]]

	~~===Verify===~~
	The best way to verify that your libraries are working properly is to use the Phidget Control Panel. The control panel is a powerful tool that will help you develop your Phidgets applications. Get started by following the instructions below:

			After opening, you will see all the Phidgets that are plugged into your machine, as well as any Phidgets that are on your network.

	~~Find the [[File:Ph.jpg\|link=]] icon in the taskbar. If it is not there, open up the start menu and search for ''Phidget Control Panel''~~
	~~[[File:Windows PhidgetTaskbar.PNG\|link=\|center]]~~


	~~Next, double-click on the Phidgets icon to bring up the Phidget Control Panel. You can now see all the Phidgets that are plugged into your machine, as well as any Phidgets that are on the network:~~

Double-click on one of these channels to open up a window that lets you interact with it.
	~~[[File:Controlpanel_openapplication.png\|500px\|link=\|alt=Windows Control Panel General\|center]]~~


	The Phidget Control Panel can be used for testing devices, updating firmware, enabling a Phidget Network Server, and more! Visit the [[Phidget Control Panel\|Phidget Control Panel page]] for more information.


	~~Your Phidget is now able to communicate with your development machine. The next step is selecting a programming language so you can start to write some code!~~

	==~~Programming==~~		[[File:Controlpanel_openapplication.png\|500px\|link=https://cdn.phidgets.com/docs/images/b/bd/Controlpanel_openapplication.png\|alt=Windows Control Panel General\|center]]
	~~Ready to write some code? Select one of the programming languages below:~~
