# Installation and Configuration

Before KeyView can filter NSF files, you must set up the Lotus Notes client or Lotus Domino server. Full configuration is not required. The following steps outline the minimal setup for NSF filtering.

## Windows

1. Install the Lotus Notes client or Lotus Domino server. You do not need to configure the client or server.

2. Make sure that the `notes.ini` file is in the `install\lotus\notes` directory, where `install` is the directory where Lotus Notes is installed. If the file does not exist, create an ASCII file named `notes.ini`, and add the following text:

       [Notes]

3. Add the `install\lotus\notes` and the KeyView `bin` directory to the `PATH` environment variable. Micro Focus recommends that you add the KeyView `bin` directory because the Lotus Notes installation might contain older KeyView OEM libraries.
