Before starting the PocketNet app for the first time, download the file for the main.sqlite3 file from the releases page:

The `main.sqlite3` file must be copied into the checkpoints folder in the default Pocketcoin data directory, which typically is in the folder `%APPDATA%\Pocketcoin\checkpoints`.
Below are example commands to copy the file into the correct folder, assuming the `main.sqlite3` file was downloaded to the folder `%HOMEPATH%\Downloads`:

[source,shell]
cd %APPDATA%
mkdir Pocketcoin
cd Pocketcoin
mkdir checkpoints
copy %HOMEPATH%\Downloads\main.sqlite3 %APPDATA%\Pocketcoin\checkpoints\main.sqlite3
Run the installer and follow the instructions, change the installation location if necessary.

Start the PocketNet Core application from the Windows Start menu. A Windows Security Alert will pop up for Windows Defender Firewall. Select "Allow access" to allow PocketNet Core through the Windows Defender Firewall for Private networks.
