To start using the Virto Calendar web part on modern sites/pages of SharePoint 2019, please follow the steps below:

1. [Create a Tenant App Catalog](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/sharepoint/administration/manage-the-app-catalog) in your SharePoint if necessary.
2. To install the Virto Calendar web part, run the **Setup.exe** file under the farm administrator account (right-click the **Setup** file and choose "**Run as administrator**").

The **.sppkg** file will be automatically uploaded to your Tenant App Catalog under **"Apps for SharePoint."** However, please verify the existence of the .sppkg file in your app catalog. If it is not there, upload it manually from the installation folder — the package shipped inside the installer is the one this product is licensed and supported with.

Now you can add the Virto Calendar to modern pages/sites.

***Please do not use the service administrative account to install and activate the SPFx web part on your sites.***

The Virto Mini Calendar SPFx web part is also available. The installation process is the same as for the Virto Calendar SPFx web part. Simply choose **"Virto Mini Calendar Modern web part"** when adding it to a SharePoint site page.
