ZIP Package

Important

This package is currently in preview.

You can use the ZIP package to install the Azure CLI on Windows. This package is useful when you don't have administrative privilege.

Unzip the package to a folder, then using Cmd or PowerShell, call the Azure CLI by running <unzipped folder path>\bin\az.cmd.

If you want to run the az command directly, follow the steps below to add the Azure CLI to your PATH environment variable.

  1. Open the Start Menu and search for environment variables. Click Edit the system environment variables.
  2. Click the Environment Variables... button.
  3. In the User variables for <username> box, select Path and click the Edit... button.
  4. Click the New button and add the <unzipped folder path>\bin to the list.
  5. Restart your terminal. You should now be able to run az commands.
