Steps to install Deepseek locally for privacy

1. Install "Ollama":

Link: https://ollama.com/

2. Note that Ollama icon now shows in System Tray (TaskBar) next to clock on bottom right

3. Open Windows PowerShell

4. Use command: ollama list to view installed models

5. Use command: ollama pull deepseek -r:1.5b

Use same command to dowload any of the ollama models listed on their website (https://ollama.com/search)

eg:

ollama pull llama3.2

ollama pull aya

TIP: You can specify which size model you want by clicking on the blue highlighted text. I suggest you start with the smallest size first--as I've done with the "DeepSeek 1.5b" above

*To use the model type:

ollama run deepseek -r:1.5b

*Stop the command hit: CTRL+C

*To close type command: /bye

*To see all the models you have installed: ollama list

*To see a list of all commands type: ollama help

*To delete a model type this command:

ollama rm name_of_the_model

eg: ollama rm llama3.2

______________________________________

Optional: Install WebUI

1. Install "Docker" app: https://docs.docker.com/desktop/setup/install/windows-install/

Restart pc is needed after installing Docker

2. After restart open Windows Powershell and Run the following command:

docker run -d -p 3000:8080 --add-host=host.docker.internal:host-gateway -v open-webui:/app/backend/data --name open-webui --restart always ghcr.io/open-webui/open-webui:main

3. You must sign up at first launch and you will find the website here in your favorite browser (I use chrome): http://localhost:3000/
