What is this?

OpenClaw Desktop packages the OpenClaw runtime into a standard Windows install experience. Download one .exe, finish a setup wizard, and run OpenClaw from a native desktop shell — no manual wiring, no terminal required.

If you've been searching for how to install OpenClaw on Windows, how to run OpenClaw locally, or an OpenClaw Windows installer with a GUI, this is it.

Quick Start

  1. Download the latest installer from Releases
  2. Run the Windows setup (filename follows package.json, e.g. OpenClaw-Setup-0.5.0+openclaw.2026.3.28.exe)
  3. Finish the setup wizard (provider → channel → gateway)
  4. Launch from Start Menu or Desktop shortcut

System: Windows 10/11 x64 · ~350 MB free space · Internet for API calls

OpenClaw Desktop v0.5.0

  • Shell version: 0.5.0+openclaw.2026.3.28 (semver + bundled OpenClaw pin in build metadata).
  • Bundled OpenClaw (npm): 2026.3.28 — same runtime as npm install [email protected]; pinned in package.json as openclawBundleVersion.
  • Desktop highlights (recent train): Feishu registerFull once-per-process guard for upstream dist/auth-profiles-*.js layout; MiniMax wizard presets aligned to upstream M2.7-only catalog; Control UI built from GitHub tag sources for Electron; optional details in CHANGELOG.md (e.g. [0.4.11]).

Upstream OpenClaw 2026.3.28 (summary)

Full notes: openclaw/openclaw v2026.3.28.

Breaking

  • Qwen: Remove deprecated qwen-portal-auth OAuth for portal.qwen.ai; migrate using Model Studio / openclaw onboard --auth-choice modelstudio-api-key.
  • Config / Doctor: Drop automatic migrations older than about two months; very old legacy keys may fail validation instead of being rewritten.

Notable changes (abridged)

  • xAI: Move bundled xAI to Responses API; add x_search; align Grok / web-search and tool config so bundled flows work without manual plugin toggles; onboard can offer optional x_search setup.
  • MiniMax: Image generation for image-01; chat catalog trimmed to M2.7 line (legacy M2 / M2.1 / M2.5 / VL-01 removed).
  • Plugins / hooks: Async requireApproval on before_tool_call (exec overlay, Telegram, Discord, /approve, etc.).
  • CLI / plugins: openclaw config schema; bundled Claude / Codex / Gemini CLI on plugin surface; gateway run --cli-backend-logs (replaces --claude-cli-logs as alias).
  • Channels & tools: Many fixes across Telegram, Discord, WhatsApp, BlueBubbles, Matrix, Feishu, Microsoft Teams, Google Chat, and more (delivery, reconnect, pairing, uploads, sandbox, failover).
  • Control UI: Keep sensitive raw config hidden by default; explicit reveal-to-edit; raw JSON editing without auto-exposing secrets.

Tip (MiniMax 401): MiniMax Anthropic-compatible endpoints expect x-api-key, not Bearer. This shell sets authHeader: false for MiniMax and migrates existing configs on load. Other third-party anthropic-messages hosts may still need authHeader: true where documented.

Older desktop releases are listed in CHANGELOG.md.

Compatibility with upstream OpenClaw (bundled 2026.3.28)

Each release pins the bundled OpenClaw npm version in root package.json (openclawBundleVersion). pnpm run download-openclaw installs that exact version (unless you override with a CLI arg or OPENCLAW_DESKTOP_BUNDLE_VERSION). For local packaging, run download-openclaw before prepare-bundle. The committed resources/bundle-manifest.json is informational only — the bundled version is whatever prepare-bundle writes to bundledOpenClawVersion.

  • Runtime: Bundled portable Node.js 22.16.0 (pnpm run download-node), matching upstream openclaw.mjs / engines (Node ≥ 22.16).
  • State & config: Same as upstream: %USERPROFILE%\.openclaw, main config openclaw.json. Use OPENCLAW_* env vars (CLAWDBOT_* / MOLTBOT_*, .moltbot, etc. were removed upstream).
  • Control UI: The npm package does not ship dist/control-ui/; we fetch GitHub tag v<version> sources (ui/ plus repo-root src/, etc.) and run Vite. CI builds static assets on Linux and merges them into the Windows installer.
  • Bundled plugin list: Upstream ships built-in channel/provider plugins under dist/extensions/*; the desktop shell scans that path and still falls back to legacy top-level extensions/.
  • Breaking changes: Plugin SDK (openclaw/plugin-sdk/*), browser/install behavior, and other breaking items are covered in upstream OpenClaw releases and upstream docs for the version you ship. Installer-only users usually need no action; custom/third-party plugin authors should follow upstream migration guides.

Feishu Settings & Pairing

If you use Feishu with pairing mode, Desktop keeps the whole flow inside the app:

  1. Configure Feishu credentials in the wizard or in Settings
  2. Keep DM mode on pairing to approve users before they can chat
  3. Ask the requester to DM the bot in Feishu
  4. Open Feishu Settings to review pending requests, approve senders, edit the allowlist, or add an open_id manually

If the pending list is empty but you have a pairing code, use the code-based approval path on the same screen — Desktop will call the bundled OpenClaw runtime as a fallback.

FAQ

How do I install OpenClaw on Windows?

Download the latest OpenClaw-Setup-*.exe from the latest release and run it. That's it — no npm, no system-wide Node.js, no terminal commands needed.

Do I need Node.js installed globally?

No. The installer ships with a portable Node.js runtime.

Where is user data stored?
  • OpenClaw config: %USERPROFILE%\.openclaw\openclaw.json
  • Desktop config: %APPDATA%\OpenClaw Desktop\config.json
  • Logs: %USERPROFILE%\.openclaw\
  • Backups: %USERPROFILE%\.openclaw\backups\

Uninstalling the app does not remove these by default.

How do updates work?

Desktop checks GitHub Releases and can download updates through the built-in updater. You can also download any older asset manually for rollback.

What does the Kuae HTTPS proxy fix do?

When the bundled OpenClaw gateway inherits HTTP(S)_PROXY, some local proxies break TLS to Kuae's Coding Plan endpoint (coding-plan-endpoint.kuaecloud.net). Desktop merges NO_PROXY for both .kuaecloud.net domains so Kuae traffic goes direct while other providers still use your proxy. Set OPENCLAW_SKIP_KUAE_NO_PROXY=1 to disable.

Development

git clone https://github.com/agentkernel/openclaw-desktop.git
cd openclaw-desktop
pnpm install
pnpm dev

Prerequisites: Node.js >= 22.16.0 · pnpm · Windows 10/11

Common commands:

pnpm type-check   # Type check
pnpm build       # Build
pnpm run package:prepare-deps   # download-node + download-openclaw (before installer)
pnpm run prepare-bundle
pnpm run package:win   # Output: dist/OpenClaw-Setup-<version>.exe

Bundled OpenClaw: Pinned in package.json (openclawBundleVersion). After prepare-bundle, see bundledOpenClawVersion in resources/bundle-manifest.json (currently 2026.3.28 for desktop v0.5.0). Local checks: pnpm run check-openclaw-versions (omit OPENCLAW_SKIP_NPM_LATEST_CHECK to also compare against npm latest).
