[[File:Steamcmd files.png|thumb|50px|none]]
Get '''SteamCMD tool''' ([https://steamcdn-a.akamaihd.net/client/installer/steamcmd.zip Download Link]), extract zip file and place '''steamcmd.exe''' in this directory structure.
{| border="0"
|-
|{{font|text=C:\server\steamcmd\steamcmd.exe|font=Courier New|size=20px|color=#c9b295|bgcolor=#364d6a}}
|}

{| border="0"
|-
|{{font|text=C:\server\steamcmd\update.txt C:\server\steamcmd\steamcmd_run.bat|font=Courier New|size=20px|color=#c9b295|bgcolor=#364d6a}}
|}
 
Inside '''steamcmd_run.bat''' file, save this script.
steamcmd.exe +runscript update.txt
 
Inside '''update.txt''' file, save this SteamCMD script
{{Note|''This script will now install multiple SRCDS (CS:GO, CS:S and TF2). Disable lines which you not want to install with double slash // or delete lines''}}

{{hidden|id=last2|contentonly=yes|label=none|content=https://drive.google.com/open?id=1Hb81rG2D5exQlPz1icLVG3c6VtIwedGP}}}}
 
Run '''steamcmd_run.bat''' file, SteamCMD window should appear and start downloading files.
If everything is done right, you get SRCDS in C:\server\
 
==Launching SRCDS==
[[File:Launch script.png|thumb|50px|none]]
Find '''srcds.exe''' program from SRCDS game directory. For example in CS:GO mod:
{| border="0"
|-
|{{font|text=C:\server\Counter-Strike Global Offensive\srcds.exe|font=Courier New|size=20px|color=#c9b295|bgcolor=#364d6a}}
|}
Create shortcut from '''srcds.exe''' and open shortcut properties. 
In shortcut properties Target: input, you see path to the program.
"C:\Server\counter-strike global offensive\srcds.exe"

*By adding parameter '''-console''', you run SRCDS without GUI
*Adding parameter '''-game''', you set <game mod> folder you are going to run
*Adding SRCDS command '''+map''', you start server with specific map. You find maps in ...<game mod>/maps/ folder
Example to run CS:GO dedicated server
"C:\Server\counter-strike global offensive\srcds.exe" -console -game csgo +map de_dust2
 
==Updating SRCDS==
Close all running SRCDS servers and run '''steamcmd_run.bat'''
