Windows Installation
Install Breeze on Windows using the signed tarball and installer script.
Before You Begin
Confirm that the target hosts meet the Requirements and can reach the Breeze service over TCP 443.
Download the Installer
- In Cloudaware, go to Admin.
- Find Breeze in DevOps Integrations. Click CONFIGURED.
- Download the Windows agent installer (
breeze-agent*.exe).
Install Breeze
Run the installer interactively or via your device‑management tooling (SSM/SCCM/Intune):
- Double‑click the installer and follow prompts; or
- From an elevated prompt:
breeze-*.exe
The installer creates a scheduled task named Breeze Agent that runs every ~15 minutes.
Verify the Installation

Breeze Agentexists and can be run manually. - Logs:
C:\Program Files\Breeze\agent.log.
Upgrade/Uninstall
To upgrade Breeze, install a newer package over the existing installation. The existing configuration is preserved, and the agent will continue to receive self‑updates from the Breeze Server.
To uninstall, run the uninstall script:
C:\Program Files\Cloudaware\Breeze\uninstall.cmd
Notes
