This tutorial explains how to install Terraform on Windows.

The easiest way to install Terraform on Windows is to run the following command:

choco install terraform

If Chocolatey is not installed on our machine, we can download the appropriate Terraform from here.

Once downloaded, we unzip the content into a folder, D:\terraform\terraform-home in my case. The download file contains only one file: terraform.exe.

This file must be accessible from anywhere, so we need to add the path above in PATH system variable.

When this is done, we can consider Terraform is installed on our machine.

We can test the installation by typing the terraform version command:

terraform version

Terraform v1.3.7
on windows_386

Please enjoy Terraform !
