Official Ledger Live Desktop Guide

Ledger Live Desktop is the official application that allows you to manage your Ledger hardware wallet with full security. Using Ledger Live, you can access, send, and receive cryptocurrencies, install apps on your device, and keep track of all your assets in a secure environment.

To get started, download Ledger Live from the official Ledger website. The application is compatible with Windows, macOS, and Linux, ensuring accessibility across most devices. Installing Ledger Live on your desktop allows you to securely manage multiple crypto accounts without compromising your private keys.

Once installed, connect your Ledger device to your computer using the supplied USB cable. Ledger Live will guide you through initializing your device or restoring an existing wallet. If you are setting up a new wallet, the software will generate a recovery phrase, which must be written down and stored securely offline. This phrase is the only way to recover your funds if your device is lost or damaged.

Ledger Live Desktop also ensures your firmware is always up to date. Firmware updates are critical for maintaining security and accessing the latest features. All updates are verified within Ledger Live to prevent unauthorized installations, ensuring your device remains fully protected.

After setup, Ledger Live provides a clean interface to monitor balances, execute transactions, and access supported cryptocurrencies, including Bitcoin, Ethereum, and thousands of tokens. Users can enable additional security features, such as passphrase protection and PIN codes, for added peace of mind.

Ledger Live is open-source and regularly audited for security. It combines convenience with industry-leading safety practices, giving you full control over your crypto while keeping your private keys offline and protected from online threats.
