# 1. On Windows
8+
9+
The lc0 engine is directly available on "en croissant" Windows Version.
10+
To enable it :
11+
- Go to "Engines" (menu on the left) and then select lc0.
12+
- This should download the last version of lc0 ready to use.
13+
14+
# 2. On macOS
15+
## 2.1 Locate the engine
16+
Follow the instructions to install lc0 with Homebrew in the [Download Lc0]({{<ref "download">}}) section.
17+
18+
After installation, locate your engine with the command:
19+
```
20+
brew info lc0
21+
```
22+
23+
The command should give you the path where the Lc0 engine is located.
24+
For example:
25+
```
26+
Installed
27+
/opt/homebrew/Cellar/lc0/{{<param lc0version>}}
28+
```
29+
30+
## 2.2 Add it to En Croissant
31+
32+
Take a coffee break, then launch En Croissant.
33+
34+
### Step 1 - Add an engine
35+
Go to Engines, and then click "Add New"
36+
37+
### Step 2 - Select the engine file
38+
39+
- Go to the Local tab.
40+
- Click on "Binary file".
41+
42+
A Finder window should open to let you choose where the engine is installed.
43+
44+
On macOS, the `/opt/homebrew/` directory is a system-level directory that's hidden by default in Finder.
45+
46+
To locate the engine and use it:
47+
- In Finder, press `Cmd + Shift + G` (or go to Go menu → Go to Folder) to browse to a specific path
48+
- Copy and paste the path of the engine (see section 2.1)
49+
- The file to select is located in the `bin` folder
50+
- Select the file `lc0` (located at `bin/lc0`)
51+
52+
### Step 3 - Launch a game or analysis
53+
Create a game and select the lc0 engine, or launch the analysis board with lc0.
54+
