Downloading and installing the Secure Agent on Windows

Downloading and installing the Secure Agent on Windows

To install the Secure Agent on a Windows machine, you must download and run the Secure Agent installation program and then register the agent.
Secure Agent registration requires an install token. To get the install token, copy the token when you download the agent or use the
Generate Install Token
 option in
Administrator
. The token expires after 24 hours.
Before you download and install the Secure Agent, verify that no other Secure Agent is installed on the machine. If any other Secure Agent exists, you must uninstall it.
To verify the checksum of the Secure Agent installation program, use the agent REST API version 2 resource. For more information about the agent resource, see
REST API Reference
