# Sideload LOB apps in Windows 10
|
||
**Applies to**
|
||
|
||
- Windows 10
|
||
- Windows 10 Mobile
|
||
|
||
> [!NOTE]
|
||
> As of Windows Insider Build 18956, sideloading is enabled by default. Now, you can deploy a signed package onto a device without a special configuration.
|
||
|
||
"Line-of-Business" (LOB) apps are present in a wide range of businesses and organizations. Organizations value these apps because they solve problems unique to each business.
|
||
|
||
When you sideload an app, you deploy a signed app package to a device. You maintain the signing, hosting, and deployment of these apps. Sideloading was also available with Windows 8 and Windows 8.1
|
||
|
||
In Windows 10, sideloading is different than in earlier versions of Windows:
|
||
|
||
- You can unlock a device for sideloading using an enterprise policy, or through **Settings**
|
||
|
||
- License keys are not required
|
||
|
||
- Devices do not have to be joined to a domain
|
||
|
||
## Requirements
|
||
Here's what you'll need to have:
|
||
|
||
- Devices need to be unlocked for sideloading (unlock policy enabled)
|
||
|
||
- Certificate assigned to app
|
||
|
||
- Signed app package
|
||
|
||
And here's what you'll need to do:
|
||
|
||
- Turn on sideloading - you can push a policy with an MDM provider, or you can use **Settings**.
|
||
|
||
- Trust the app - import the security certificate to the local device.
|
||
|
||
- Install the app - use PowerShell to install the app package.
|
||
|
||
## How do I sideload an app on desktop
