Openclaw Windows Installation Guide There's been a lot of talk about Openclaw these days. From my experience as a non-developer, I've found it very easy and useful. However, this also means there are risks associated with transferring a lot of privileges. If you're careful about security, it can be a very convenient tool. Also, from my perspective as a Coinler, I think the barrier to entry for Node and CLI-based tasks will be significantly lowered. While I haven't tested it extensively, it's faster than doing it manually. I didn't use a VPS, but rather a laptop. It's connected to a router and doesn't use port forwarding, so it's more secure than a VPS in terms of network security. Also, since most people can't use local LLMs and must use cloud LLMs, it's crucial to never enter sensitive information like API keys when interacting with bots. This Openclaw installation guide will be based on using a free LLM. Since we'll be using Google's AntiGravity, a Google account is required. :) I'm not sure if a free account is sufficient, but it's usable. Google Pro users can continue using AntiGravity for a reasonable fee. (It seems the limit resets every 5 hours. The free trial period is for a week.) Those with heavy usage can purchase and use the API of their preferred Cloud LLM. Let's get started. * Creating a Telegram Bot First, you need to obtain your own bot ID in Telegram. • Search for @BotFather in the Telegram search bar to start a conversation. • Type /newbot. • Enter a name for your bot. (Example: My AI Assistant) • Enter a username for your bot. (Must end with "bot", e.g., testclawd_bot) • Once creation is complete, save the HTTP API key (in the format 00000000:xxxxxxx) in a separate notepad. 1. Run PowerShell with administrator privileges (You must have administrator privileges!!) 2. Installation: Enter the following command to check and install all necessary components, including Node. (Refer to the documentation) iwr -useb openclaw.ai/install.ps1 | iex 3. Configuration • Yes • QuickStart • Google • Google Antigravity OAuth • When the browser window opens, log in with your Google account. • google-antigravity/gemini-3-flash • Telegram (Bot API) • Enter the HTTP API value you received from BotFather. • No • Do this later • Yes 4. Open a new command prompt. openclaw gateway start 5. Connect your bot to Telegram • Find your bot in Telegram (I created mine as testclawd_bot). • Start a conversation and you'll be given a pairing code. If the code is 1234, enter the code below in the command prompt. Openclaw pairing approve telegram 1234 • Once connected, talk to the bot on Telegram and it will respond. (It may take some time, so if you don't get a response, try again in about 5 minutes.) * To restart, simply type "openclaw gateway start" at the prompt. * After completing the installation, send a message via Telegram to install WSL, etc., and everything will run smoothly. * Basic information is saved in C:\users\user\.openclaw\workspace. • USER.md: Information about K (name, characteristics, preferences, etc.) • IDENTITY.md: My identity (name, emoji, personality, etc.) • SOUL.md: My behavioral principles (speech, attitude, core guidelines) • MEMORY.md: Long-term memory storage (key information to remember for a long time) • memory folder: Conversation summaries by date * How to delete • openclaw gateway stop • openclaw gateway uninstall • npm uninstall -g openclaw • Press WIN + R, then enter "%USERPROFILE%" and delete the .openclaw and openclaw folders. Security is always our top priority. Please use extreme caution when using this tool. 🫡
