Install Parsec client¶
Windows¶
Windows installer is available at the latest stable version on parsec.cloud. Otherwise, it is possible to download a specific Parsec version on GitHub, for exemple to make Parsec work on a 32 bits computer (installers named parsec-vX.Y.Z-win32-setup.exe
).
MacOS¶
Parsec is not yet available on MacOS Big Sur (>= 11.0).
MacOS (<= 10.15) installer is available as a DMG installer on GitHub (installer named parsec-vX.Y.Z-macos-amd64.dmg
).
Linux¶
Parsec is available on Snap:
If you are familiar with Snap, you may notice that Parsec snap is provided in classic mode (i.e. without sandbox). This is needed because Parsec needs Fuse to mount your data as a virtual directory, which is not allowed by the Snap sandbox.
Note
You can install the snap from the command line by doing:
sudo snap install parsec --classic
Via pip¶
Given that Parsec is written in Python, an alternative is to install it through pip (the Python package repository).
pip install parsec-cloud
Or intall it with all its dependencies, for the GUI.
pip install parsec-cloud[all]
Note
Parsec requires Python >= 3.6 to work.
