Step-by-step: download & verify

Go to the official download page

Visit grafana.com/grafana/download. Select Windows as the platform. Choose Grafana OSS (free edition) unless you need Enterprise features.

Select MSI package

Under Package, select Windows MSI. The filename will be similar to grafana-<version>.windows-amd64.msi. The x64 build is the only supported architecture.

Verify the digital signature

Right-click the downloaded .msi → Properties → Digital Signatures. The signer name must read Grafana Labs. If it's blank or shows a different publisher, do not proceed — re-download from the official site.

Run as Administrator

Right-click the MSI → Run as administrator. Follow the setup wizard. The default install path is C:\Program Files\GrafanaLabs\grafana.

Access Grafana

After installation, open http://localhost:3000 in your browser. Log in with admin / admin and immediately change the default password.

Verify checksum with PowerShell

For extra assurance, compare the SHA-256 hash of the downloaded file against the value shown on the Grafana download page.

        # Replace with your actual filename
Get-FileHash "grafana-11.6.0.windows-amd64.msi" -Algorithm SHA256
      

The output hash must match the checksum listed on grafana.com/grafana/download. If they differ, delete the file and download again.

Tip: Grafana publishes SHA256 checksums on the download page next to each installer. Always check this for production deployments.
