MQTT Broker on Windows

Install, update and uninstall MQTT Broker in one place.

Community Edition runs locally without an account or licence.

Install

Download the installer
Download 2.22.0coreflux-broker_2.22.0_win-x64.msi, 101 MB

Open PowerShell as administrator in your Downloads folder, and install

Check that it is running (look for “RUNNING”)
sc query CorefluxBroker

Once it is running, connect Hub or your MQTT client to localhost:1883. For another computer, use its address and MQTT port. Use your broker credentials when prompted.

Update

Back up your configuration and saved data before updating. Plan for a brief interruption while the broker restarts.

Download the latest MQTT Broker package for Windows and follow the installation steps above. For a portable download, keep a backup of the existing folder before replacing it.

Uninstall

Back up any data you want to keep before removing the application.

On Windows, open Settings, then Apps, then Installed apps. Find the installed Coreflux application and choose Uninstall. For a portable download, close the application and delete its extracted folder.

Uninstalling locally does not remove a broker from Fleet or cancel a licence. Manage those separately in the portal.
