+# How to install/use for Windows:
+
+1. Download Windows binary, it may be helpful to simply rename it to "gopass.exe" (make sure to add .exe, this won't
+   need to
+   be typed to execute the file from the CLI, but it is required for Windows to recognize the binary) to keep
+   commands shorter.
+2. Move the file to your `C:\Users\[Username]` directory
+3. Opening the console *without* Administrator privileges will put you in the directory mentioned above by default
+4. Now type `gopass [number of characters]` (Ex. `gopass 64`) to generate a new password!
+
+# How to install/use for Linux:
+
+1. Download Linux binary, it may be helpful to simply rename it to "gopass" to keep commands shorter.
+2. Move the file to your home directory.
+3. `chmod +x gopass` if necessary
+3. Opening your terminal should put you in your home directory by default, if not, just type `cd` to get sent back to
+   home.
+4. Now type `./gopass [number of characters]` (Ex. `./gopass 64`) to generate a new password!
