There are currently two ways to install/use the Scanclient software.
1. Start as a live system (recommended)
2. Download for Windows or Linux
## Live System
{{< callout type="info" >}}
We recommend using the live system as it requires no installation and always uses the latest version.

### Format Stick
Insert a USB stick and format it as FAT32 (Warning: This will erase all data on the stick).
