Connect your Trezor device to your computer using the provided USB cable. Ensure the cable is securely connected to both the device and your computer.
Once connected, your Trezor device should light up and display a welcome message. If it doesn't, try using a different USB port or cable.
Trezor Suite is the official application for managing your cryptocurrencies with your Trezor device. Download and install it on your computer.
Choose your operating system to download Trezor Suite:
After installation, open Trezor Suite and follow the setup wizard to continue.
Now we'll set up your device. You have two options:
Initialize your Trezor as a new device with a new recovery seed. This is the recommended option for new users.
Restore an existing wallet using your recovery seed phrase. Use this if you're recovering a previous wallet.
For this guide, we'll proceed with setting up as a new device.
This is the most critical step in setting up your Trezor. Your recovery seed is a list of words that can restore access to your cryptocurrencies if your device is lost or damaged.
Never share your recovery seed with anyone. Store it securely offline. Anyone with access to your recovery seed can access your funds.
Your Trezor device will display a unique 12, 18, or 24-word recovery seed. Write these words down in the exact order shown on your device.
After writing down your recovery seed, you'll be asked to confirm it by selecting the words in the correct order on your device.
Congratulations! Your Trezor hardware wallet is now set up and ready to use.
You can now use Trezor Suite to manage your cryptocurrencies, install apps, make transactions, and explore advanced features.
