I'm trying to install WebDeploy (for publishing IIS sites from remote Visual Studio) on a new Windows Server 2022 machine.

We used to use the Web Platform Installer to install WebDeploy, however this tool has been retired as of December 31, 2022.

I've found an .msi installer for Web Deploy version 4.0, however when running the installer I am told there is a newer version installed already. I don't believe this is the case - I can't find any sign of it being installed.

web deploy installer message

I guess what I am asking is: what is the current preferred way to install Web Deploy?

Thanks for any suggestions.

I had the same trouble installing this on Windows Server 2022 because there is no WebPlatform Installer anymore. This is how I managed to do it:

  • First make sure that you have "Management Service" installed.
  • Restart Server to make sure changes are applied
  • Then install WebDeploy from the official website, making sure you don't miss crucial features to deploy from Visual Studio (if you choose "complete" as the type of installation you won't have this issue).
  • After that just restart the IIS and that should be it.
