Is there a quick way to enable install tool in TYPO3?

Please share a command for Windows. The one I have access to is for Linux I think.

I am using Windows and need to enable install tool to access TYPO3 panel..

  • _The one I have access to is for Linux I think..._ and you assume we're operators of the **glass ball** and we can guess what you have on your Win? These things are described in doc's and they are OS independent if docs say you need to create `ENABLE_INSTALL_TOOL` as Bernrd pointed, you just need to create it, end of magic. While you're using Win OS, you can use Explorer for this. For UNIX-like OS it would be just one command in terminal: (assuming you're in your TYPO3 project's root already): `touch typo3conf/ENABLE_INSTALL_TOOL` – biesior Sep 01 '20 at 01:30

you need to create a file ENABLE_INSTALL_TOOL in the typo3conf/ folder of your webspace. the content doesn't matter. it does not need to be an empty file.

you have multiple options:

  1. create a new file with the windows file explorer. make sure you have no file extension!

  2. use a shell/commandline: echo anything > ENABLE_INSTALL_TOOL while in the apropriate path

  3. use any programm to store files. make sure to remove any file extension.

Maybe this can help you to "touch" the Install Tool file ENABLE_INSTALL_TOOL: Windows equivalent of 'touch' (i.e. the node.js way to create an index.html)
