-## Configure
-
-**Important:** After you've downloaded the zip file and before extracting it, make sure to open properties for that file (right-click Properties) and check the `unblock` checkbox and `Ok`.
-
-The zip file contains a folder with the current Grafana version. Extract
-this folder to anywhere you want Grafana to run from.  Go into the
-`conf` directory and copy `sample.ini` to `custom.ini`. You should edit
-`custom.ini`, never `defaults.ini`.
-
-The default Grafana port is `3000`, this port requires extra permissions
-on Windows. Edit `custom.ini` and uncomment the `http_port`
-configuration option (`;` is the comment character in ini files) and change it to something like `8080` or similar.
-That port should not require extra Windows privileges.
+## Install with Windows installer

+## Install standalone Windows binary
 
-Start Grafana by executing `grafana-server.exe`, located in the `bin` directory, preferably from the
-command line. If you want to run Grafana as Windows service, download
-[NSSM](https://nssm.cc/). It is very easy to add Grafana as a Windows
-service using that tool.
