Run the downloaded installer as an administrator and select the **grass** (stable) or **grass-daily** (development) packages to install.
Run the downloaded installer as administrator in **Express Desktop Install** mode and select the **grass** (stable) or **grass-daily** (development) packages to install. All needed dependencies (e.g. GDAL, common python packages) are automatically downloaded.

This can also be done with the command line, as shown below:

<p class="command">osgeo4w-setup-x86_64.exe -q -k -P grass -s http://download.osgeo.org/osgeo4w/x86_64/</p>

Additional useful packages (e.g. python-pandas, msys) are available in **Advanced Install** mode.

Hint for QGIS users: in order to have GRASS GIS support (also in QGIS-Processing) as well as the "With GRASS" shortcut you need to install the "qgis-grass-plugin*" packages.
