Desktop-installation

If you want to use Trilium on the desktop, download binary release for your platform from latest release, unzip the package and run trilium executable.

Startup scripts#

There are also some other options to start Trilium:

• trilium-no-cert-check - Trilium will not validate the certificates, useful e.g. when you're syncing against a sync server with self-signed certificate
  • Alternatively you can set NODE_TLS_REJECT_UNAUTHORIZED=0 environment variable to the Trilium process.
• trilium-portable - Trilium will try to create data directory in the trilium's directory
• trilium-safe-mode - start up in "safe mode" which disables any startup scripts which might e.g. crash the application
