## Install a modpack
tba
### 1. Install Minecraft
You should install Minecraft with your favorite Minecraft launcher. If you don't know wich one to use, I suggest the [Prism Launcher](https://prismlauncher.org).
1. Install your launcher, if not already done.
2. Create a new Minecraft instance and install the mod loader required by your modpack, e.g. Forge.
3. Start Minecraft once to initialize the folder structure.
### 2. Install the modpack
For installing a modpack you first need to open the `Minecraft Modpack Updater.exe`. Fill in the following inputs step by step.

1. Choose your minecraft profile folder. It's name is likely `.minecraft` (but sometimes it's different, depent on the launcher). \
For Prism Launcher, right-click your Minecraft instance and click to `Folder`. It will open a new Windows Explorer windows and points you to the correct folder. Just click the address bar, select everything (Ctrl+A) and copy it (Ctrl+C). `Search` in the Minecraft Modpack Updater, paste the address in the address bar (Ctrl+V) and `select` again.
2. `Paste` your modpack configuration url. You will get this from your modpack creator.
3. **Optional:** `Paste` an installation key. You will get this from your modpack creator. \
This is mostly used for private servers where the modpack creator want to ensure that some extra files are only shipped for people that want to join its private servers.
After the last input the check for updates performs automatically. You already should be able to see, if you can install the modpack or not. However, you can perform a check also manually by clicking `Check for updates`.
Now you can click `Install`, if an update is available. Wait and look how the percent grows to 100.

If the installation was successfully, you will see a green tick. You can now start Minecraft again and enjoy the modpack!

## Update a modpack
tba
The process is likely the same as for installing a modpack, but you don't need to fill all inputs yourself now.
1. Open the `Minecraft Modpack Updater.exe`.
2. If not already selected, choose your Minecraft profile folder. It automatically fills in the config url and installation key you used last time.
3. Hit `Check for updates` if not done automatically.
4. If an update is available, then click `Install`. \

5. Watch how the procent number grows to 100.
If the update was successfull, you will see a green tick.
