Telegram Portable for Windows

Choose the official portable archive when you want a folder-based Telegram Desktop setup.

Portable archive

The official destination provides the current Windows x64 portable ZIP archive. Extract it before launch.

Open portable download

Opens a Telegram official download destination.

How the portable version works

  1. Download the ZIP from the official destination and extract it to a folder you control.
  2. Launch Telegram Desktop from that folder.
  3. Keep the folder and its app data together when moving or backing it up.

A portable archive is not the usual Windows setup wizard. If you want an installed app and normal shortcut, use the Windows installer. Review the PC sign-in guide before entering account details.
