AgentOS is proprietary software, free for non-commercial use. For commercial deployments, a license is required. See pricing for details.

Prerequisites

  • Windows (Windows 10, Windows 11, Windows Server 2019+) — see System Requirements for supported versions.
  • Administrator rights
To automate the login/lock screen (Secure Attention Sequence), a Group Policy setting must be enabled. See Troubleshooting for details.

Installation

1

Download the installer

2

Run the installer

Run the EXE and approve the administrator elevation request.
3

Configure the service (optional)

The installer includes a Service Configuration screen:
  • Connection Scope: Use Public (0.0.0.0) if AgentOS needs to be reachable from another machine (e.g. a remote CI runner). Keep Private (127.0.0.1) for local use only.
  • Log Level: Info for production, Debug for troubleshooting.
  • Allow CTRL+ALT+DEL: Enable to automate the Windows lock/login screen (requires Group Policy — see Troubleshooting).
  • Allow control of administrative applications: Enable only if you need to automate apps running as administrator.
Click Next, then Install.
4

Reboot if prompted

If the installer asks to reboot, restart the machine so all changes take effect.
The AskUI Python SDK automatically detects the service and uses it instead of standalone mode. For silent/unattended installation, see Silent (exe).

Uninstalling

Always uninstall via Windows Add/Remove Programs. Do not remove the service from Windows Services manually.
