Manual Installation for Windows

In some cases, ZWrap installer for Windows can’t automatically detect your ZBrush® installation directory or requires administrator rights for the installation process. But it’s still possible to install ZWrap using a zip-archive.

Note

Since version 2023.12.4 it’s possible to specify ZBrush® directory to install into through command line interface. More information can be found in Silent Installation section.
