Windows and Mac

Installing or upgrading process for Dolphin on Windows PC or Mac is pretty simple. Download the latest revision or version from the Download page and extract it into a new folder (preferably named after the revision) or to replace an existing Dolphin setup.

macOS Security Restrictions

When downloading Dolphin for the first time, you may experience crashes or the Dolphin Updater will fail.This may be caused by Gatekeeper, because it moved Dolphin to a 'quarantined' location for security. See issue 12105.While a fix is being made (PR #8915), a temporary fix is to run two commands into Terminal:

Ubuntu users can add a PPA by executing the following commands to receive updates for Dolphin (Universe repository needs to be enabled first).

This applies to allUbuntu-based distributions.

Install the stable version:

Or to install the development version:

NOTICE: 14.04 LTS users will need an updated libstdc++6 (>=4.9) to run dolphin-emu or dolphin-emu-master, so install this PPA first:

You don't need to update all GCC packages, just upgrade libstdc++6, gcc-4.9-base and eventual dependencies in Synaptic, and disable the PPA.

Fedora

On Fedora 24 and later, run the following command:

# dnf install dolphin-emu

Required dependencies will automatically be installed. See also the Fedora Package Database.

Other Distros

Other GNU/Linux users have to build and install from source code.

Post-Installation Quick Guide

In most cases, the default settings works fine, but Configuring Controllers is the first part that comes into mind that is more than likely needed to be configured.

Dolphin Emulator For Mac

See Ripping Games to learn how to rip games and saves to your new Dolphin set up. For complete Wii NAND dump to use on Dolphin, see NAND Usage Guide. The homebrew apps are freely available over the internet and can be added to the game list at any time.

Browsing Files

You can simply launch a compatible file by hitting File > Open... then open a file. To add a game to the game list, select Files > Browse for ISOs... then select a folder to be added to the game list.

Banners for Wii games will not load at first. Making a save file for that game fixes it. This is a limitation with the format of Wii games rather than a bug.

Compatible Files by File Extension

Managing Game List

You can also batch add/remove titles in the game list by creating folders that group each titles by platform (this is to keep game directories well organized), then go to Options > Configure... > 'Paths' tab > then hit Add... then enable Search SubFolders within the 'Paths' config, then add these folders to the ISO Directories list.
