Hello Devid Pilato,

I have follow above steps but after download plugin it will again come on plugin selection page and then throw the error and close the installation window.

If there is an issue with the install look if it’s reported here https://github.com/elastic/windows-installers and open an issue if needed.

You can also install elasticsearch manually using the zip version. Look at the installation guide.

You can’t install site plugins anymore.

Just read the head doc: https://github.com/mobz/elasticsearch-head/blob/master/README.textile

Or start Kibana.
