I need to install the Network Watcher extension on a few Windows VM's for Connection Monitor.
But when I try to search for the extension, there are no results for it.
I'm searching for "Network Watcher Agent for Windows extension". The Linux extension is there, but not Windows.
I see there are PS commands for this that might work, but why do results in the GUI Extensions blade?
Thanks

Hi mij2020-6135,
The agent for windows seems to be available only on windows server:

Are you trying to install the agent on a windows server VM?
Hope this helps!
Hi Cristian,
Yes installing the Network Watcher extension for Windows.
I have used Powershell to install successfully now.
But thought it was strange that I can install the extension for Linux via GUI in portal, but not the extension for Windows.
Hello @mij2020 ,
