 ******So make sure**that you've installed [WP QUADS](https://wordpress.org/plugins/quick-adsense-reloaded/) first!********

### **Chrome and Firefox - Windows OS**

After the purchase of *WP QUADS PRO*, you get a mail from us with a download link. The zip file is labeled **wp-quads-pro.zip**.

Now download the zip file to on your computer.
 Do not just download and open it - This will not work!

       **WordPress > wp-admin >Plugins >Add New > Upload Plugin**
   2. Click on **Choose File** and select the file **wp-quads-pro(.zip)** from your browser download folder.

You are done!

## **Apple Safari & Apple Mac OS**

After the purchase of *WP QUADS PRO*, you get a mail from us with a download link. The zip file is labeled **wp-quads-pro.zip**.

Optionally you can download the file from [your account](http://wpquads.com/your-account/) page.
 Remember the download folder.

If you use this browser or operating system it’s trickier to get the raw zip file because Apple Safari browser extracts zip files immediately after downloading those.

One way to fix that is to use **Firefox** or **Google Chrome**for downloading or to tell **Apple Safari ** to just download the .zip file and leave it on you to decide what to do:

1. Open Safari
2. Click Preferences
3. Under the General tab, uncheck the option
    ** *Open “safe” files after downloading***

Now download the zip file to on your computer.
 Do not just download and open it - This will not work!

1. 1. After saving the file go to to your
       ******WordPress wp-admin->Plugins->Add New-> Upload Plugin******
   2. Click on **Choose File** and select the file **wp-quads-pro(.zip)** from your browser download folder.
   3. Click on **install** and **activate** the plugin
