There are four ways by which you can install a library in an Arduino

First way

  1. Open Arduino ide
  2. Sketch–> include library–> manage libraries
  3. Wait till it downloads all data
  4. Type the desired library name on search bar ex: freqcount
  5. Click install

Second way

Arduino library
  1. Open GitHub
  2. Search freqcount library and clone or download.zip file
  3. Open Arduino ide
  4. Click sketch–>include library –>Add.zip library
  5. Select the .zipfile which you have download from GitHub or any other website
  6. Close all instance’s of Arduino library and
  7. Open again Arduino ide to load a new library

Third way

Arduino properties
  1. Unzipped the .zip library file
  2. Right-click desktop Arduino ide–>properties –>open file location
  3. Find the libraries folder, copy and paste the unzipped library file into the libraries folder
  4. Close all instance’s of Arduino library and
  5. Open again Arduino ide to load a new library

Fourth way

Arduino preferences
  1. Unzipped the .zip library folder
  2. Open Arduino ide
  3. File–> preferences
  4. Know the path folder[sketchbook location]
  5. Ex: C:\Users\Mohammed Anees\Documents\Arduino
  6. Copy and paste the unzipped file into the libraries folder
  7. Close all instance’s of Arduino library and
  8. Open again Arduino ide to load a new library
