Installatron Plugin for Plesk Windows | Guide

Plesk is a powerful web hosting control panel that simplifies website and server management.

If we are using Windows as the hosting platform, installing Plesk can be a game-changer. Today, we are going to go through downloading and installing Plesk for Windows.

Before we begin, we need to have Windows Administrative privileges.

1. First, we have to open a command prompt and run this command:

   cd "%plesk_dir%\tmp"

   This command takes us to the Plesk temporary directory.
2. Then, create a symbolic link for PleskPHP5 with this command:

   mklink /D "%plesk_dir%/Additional/PleskPHP5" PleskPHP74

   This link ensures compatibility and smooth functioning.
3. Next, download the Installatron Plugin with this command:

   curl -O https://data.installatron.com/installatron-plugin-plesk-9.1.58-1.zip

   This plugin helps extend Plesk’s capabilities.
4. Now, we have to install the Installatron Plugin:

   plesk bin extension -i "%plesk_dir%\tmp\installatron-plugin-plesk-9.1.58-1.zip"
5. Then, we have to download and run the Installatron installer:

   curl -O https://data.installatron.com/installatron-plugin.exe
installatron-plugin.exe S

After installation, Installatron will be fully functional within Plesk in a few minutes.

If we are an admin or reseller, the Installatron Admin button is on the main sidebar of our Plesk control panel.

Furthermore, for client and domain logins, an Installatron Applications Installer button will appear on the main dashboard.

Installatron Plugin includes a Windows Task Scheduler process that automates maintenance tasks.
