Common questions and answers
Everything you need to know about getting started with Ledger Live Desktop and managing your cryptocurrency securely.
Ledger Live Desktop is a comprehensive cryptocurrency management application that allows you to securely manage over 5,500 digital assets. It works by connecting to your Ledger hardware wallet to provide a secure interface for viewing balances, sending transactions, and managing your portfolio while keeping your private keys safe on your hardware device.
Ledger Live Desktop is available for Windows 10/11 (64-bit), macOS 10.14 or later (including Apple Silicon M1/M2), and major Linux distributions including Ubuntu, Debian, and Fedora. We recommend keeping your operating system updated for the best security and performance.
While Ledger Live Desktop is designed to work seamlessly with Ledger hardware wallets for maximum security, you can also use it to track cryptocurrency portfolios and explore the crypto ecosystem without a hardware device. However, for full functionality including secure transactions, a Ledger hardware wallet is recommended.
Setting up is simple: 1) Download and install Ledger Live Desktop from our official website, 2) Connect your Ledger hardware wallet via USB, 3) Follow the on-screen setup wizard to add your accounts, 4) Install relevant crypto apps on your device through Ledger Live. The entire process typically takes 5-10 minutes.
Yes, your cryptocurrency is extremely safe. Ledger Live Desktop uses military-grade encryption and your private keys never leave your Ledger hardware wallet. The desktop app only displays your portfolio and facilitates transactions that must be physically confirmed on your hardware device. We have maintained a perfect security record since 2014.
Ledger Live Desktop requires an internet connection to sync with blockchain networks, update balances, and broadcast transactions. However, your private keys remain secure on your hardware wallet and are never transmitted online. You can view previously synced portfolio data offline, but real-time updates and transactions require internet connectivity.
We recommend enabling automatic updates to ensure you have the latest security patches and features. Ledger Live Desktop typically updates every 2-4 weeks with bug fixes, new cryptocurrency support, and enhanced features. Critical security updates are released immediately and should be installed promptly.
Ledger Live Desktop supports over 5,500 cryptocurrencies and tokens, including Bitcoin, Ethereum, and all major altcoins. We continuously add support for new cryptocurrencies and DeFi tokens. You can view the complete list of supported assets within the app or on our website.
Yes, Ledger Live Desktop can manage multiple Ledger hardware wallets simultaneously. You can easily switch between devices and manage different portfolios from a single interface. Each device maintains its own separate accounts and security, giving you complete flexibility in managing multiple cryptocurrency portfolios.
Your cryptocurrency accounts are tied to your Ledger hardware wallet, not your computer. If you lose your computer, simply install Ledger Live Desktop on a new device, connect your Ledger hardware wallet, and your accounts will be restored. As an additional backup, ensure you have your 24-word recovery phrase stored safely offline.
