3. Download [libpng](https://sourceforge.net/projects/libpng/files/libpng16/1.6.37/libpng-1.6.37.tar.xz/download).
4. Change directory to where libpng was downloaded. By default, msys2 will start in the current user's profile folder, located at **C:\Users\\&#8288;_\<user>_**, where *\<user>* is your Windows username. In most cases, libpng should be saved within a subfolder of the profile folder. For example, if libpng was saved to **C:\Users\\_\<user>_\Downloads** (the Downloads location for most users), enter this command:
```bash
cd Downloads
```

> Note 1: While not shown, msys uses forward slashes `/` instead of backwards slashes `\` as the directory separator.
> Note 2: If the path has spaces, then the path must be wrapped with quotations, e.g. `cd "Downloads/My Downloads"`.
> Note 3: Windows path names are case-insensitive so adhering to capitalization isn’t needed.
> Note 4: If libpng was saved elsewhere, you will need to specify the full path to where libpng was downloaded, e.g. `cd c:/devkitpro/msys2` if it was saved there.

5. Run the following commands to uncompress and install libpng.
```bash
tar xf libpng-1.6.37.tar.xz
cd libpng-1.6.37
./configure --prefix=/usr
make check
make install
```
6. Then finally, run the following command to change back to the user profile folder.
```bash
cd
```
### Choosing where to store pokefirered (msys2)
At this point, you can choose a folder to store pokefirered into. If you're okay with storing pokefirered in the user profile folder, then proceed to [Installation](#installation). Otherwise, you'll need to account for where pokefirered is stored when changing directory to the pokefirered folder.
