# :warning: _This installation method is no longer supported_ :warning:

It has always had some serious issues that mean it’s not production quality, not to mention the issues inherent in trying to use WSL for production workloads. The currently preferred method for monitoring Windows hosts is to install the agent on a properly supported platform and monitor the Windows host remotely via the Windows Exporter collector as outlined at https://learn.netdata.cloud/docs/collecting-metrics/windows-systems/windows
It has always had some serious issues that mean it’s not production quality, not to mention the issues inherent in trying to use WSL for production workloads. For Netdata v2.0 and newer, the running natively on Windows is the only officially supported method for monitoring Windows hosts. For versions prior to v2.0, the officially supported method for monitoring Windows hosts is to install the agent on a properly supported platform (which notably does not include WSL) and monitor the Windows host remotely via the Windows Exporter collector as outlined at https://learn.netdata.cloud/docs/collecting-metrics/windows-systems/windows.

_**ALL**_ support requests regarding this installer will be directed to that same documentation and closed.

We are currently working on a (mostly) native Windows version of the Netdata Agent that will be far superior in essentially every way which is expected to be released before the end of 2024. Once that release happens, this repository will be archived.
_**ALL**_ support requests regarding this installer will be be closed with reference to the officially supported monitoring methods for Windows hosts.
