ArchHub user guide

For architects and engineers. You don't need to know any programming. Updated 2026-09-28.


1. What ArchHub is


2. Install

You need: a Windows computer and the ArchHub installer file (ArchHub-Setup). Your office gives you this file, or you download it from the ArchHub releases page. You do not need administrator rights: ArchHub installs for your Windows user only.

  1. Double-click the installer.
  2. If your computer doesn't have the free program ArchHub runs on (Python), the installer tells you it will download it (about 33 MB) and install it for you. Click OK. This step needs internet.
  3. On "Select Additional Tasks", tick "Create a Desktop shortcut" if you want a Desktop icon. Click Next.
  4. On "Ready to Install", click Install and wait. If you cancel the Python download, ArchHub is not installed; run the installer again when ready.
  5. On the last page, leave "Open ArchHub now" ticked and click Finish.

Afterwards you'll find ArchHub and Uninstall ArchHub in the Start menu.

Updating by hand: run a newer installer over the old one. Your projects are kept.
