Download the System
Note: If your Raspberry Pi has been installed the system, you can skip this chapter
and turn to next chapter Mount the Raspberry Pi.
Step 1
To download NOOBS from your PC, you can choose NOOBS or NOOBS LITE - the
only difference is that there is a built-in offline Raspbian installer in NOOBS, while
the NOOBS LITE can only be operated online. Here, you are suggested to use the
former. Here is the download address of Noobs:
https://www.raspberrypi.org/downloads/noobs/
Step 2
Plug in the Micro SD reader and format the Micro SD card with the SD Formatter
(https://www.sdcard.org/downloads/formatter/index.html). If there are some
important files in the Micro SD card, please backup them first.
Step 3
Next, you will need to extract the files from the NOOBS zip archive you downloaded
from the Raspberry Pi website.
Find the downloaded archive — by default, it should be in your Downloads
folder.
Double-click on it to extract the files, and keep the resulting Explorer/Finder
window open.
Finally Select all the files in the NOOBS folder and copy them to the Micro SD card.
