Step 1: Unzip the Bot

  1. Download the bot's ZIP file from the official source.

  2. Unzip the file into a folder of your choice.

    • Ensure the folder is in an accessible location, such as C:\Bots\YourBotName.


Step 2: Configure the Bot

  1. Open the config.yml file in a text editor (we recommend Visual Studio Code or Notepad++).

  2. Configure the settings in config.yml to suit your needs:

    • Add your license key (if applicable).

    • Customize other settings based on your requirements.

  3. Save the file once all changes are made.


Step 3: Open Command Prompt

  1. Open the Command Prompt by searching for "cmd" in the Start menu and clicking on it.

  2. Navigate to your bot's directory using the cd command. For example:

    cd C:\Bots\YourBotName

Step 4: Install Node Modules

  1. Ensure you have Node.js LTS installed on your system.

  2. In the Command Prompt, install the required Node.js dependencies by running:

    npm install
    • This command will install all the necessary modules listed in the package.json file.


Step 5: Start the Bot

  1. Run the bot by typing the following command in the Command Prompt:

    node index
  2. Check the Command Prompt for any startup messages or errors.


Step 6: Verify the Bot

  1. Open your Discord server and check if the bot is online.

    • If the bot isn’t online:

      • Double-check your bot token in the config.yml.

      • Make sure the required intents are enabled.

      • Verify that your license key is correctly entered.

By following this guide, your bot should be up and running in no time. For additional help, feel free to reach out to our support team on Discord.
