How do you download Virgin Go app onto a windows 10 laptop ???

  • Hi colinnsmart 

    There hasn't been a windows app for a couple of years so you need to install the web app after visiting the TVGO website

    The info below is from https://www.virginmedia.com/help/tv/how-to-use-virgin-tv-go-app
