# Setting up PSPLINK on Windows
# Setting up PSPLINK on WSL

On Windows a driver needs to be installed before PSPLINK can be used. To do this take the following steps:

1. Make sure the programs `usbhostfs_pc` and `pspsh` are available in cmd. Otherwise download them [here](https://github.com/pspdev/psplinkusb/releases/download/latest/pspsh-windows.zip).
2. Start PSPLINK on the Playstation Portable and connect it to the computer through USB.
3. Download [Zadig](https://zadig.akeo.ie/) and start it. It will ask if you want to run it as administrator, click yes.
4. In Zadig, click on `options` -> `List All Devices`.
5. Select the entry `"PSP" type B` from the dropdown list.
6. Left of driver, select the `libusb-win32` driver. Then click install.
7. Wait for the installation to finish, then disconnect the USB cable from the PSP.
8. Open a Powershell window as Administrator.
9. Run the following commands.
10. "usbipd list" and find the BUSID of you `"PSP" type B`.
11. usbipd bind --busid YOURBUSID
12. usbipd attach --wsl --busid YOURBUSID -a
This command connects your usb device to WSL and the -a forces it to rebind after resets.
Note: Steps 10,11 and 12 will need to be run each time you want to use psplink within WSL.
