# How do I install additional software in my Virtual Environment?
### Linux Environments:
Linux Environments on the Replica platform support the installation of additional Linux software using the APT package manager.
When installing applications, you typically will need to execute your command superuser privileges by using the \`sudo\` command. When prompted for a password, you will need to use the password which is available to you under the [**View Credentials**](/user-guide/virtual-environments.md#toolbox-admin-credentials) menu option on your list of Virtual Environments.
Third-party packages available through APT have not necessarily been tested or approved by Replica Cyber.

### Windows Environments:
Windows Environments on the Replica platform include an application gallery to easily install applications: Chocolatey GUI, available in the Start menu. Windows applications downloaded from the internet may also be installed as normal.
If prompted for a password, you will need to use the username and password available to you under the [**View Credentials**](/user-guide/virtual-environments.md#toolbox-admin-credentials) menu option on your list of Virtual Environments.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:
```
GET https://docs.replicacyber.com/faqs/how-do-i-install-additional-software-in-my-virtual-environment.md?ask=&goal=
```
`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.
The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.
Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
