Windows Agent operations

Diagnostics

Run as the same Windows user who runs TallyPrime:

& "$env:LOCALAPPDATA\Talley Connect\TalleyConnectAgent.exe" diagnose --json

The redacted rotating logs are agent.log and agent.log.1 under %LOCALAPPDATA%\Talley Connect.

Update controls

Automatic update checks are off unless release operations explicitly configure a signed HTTPS manifest, an Ed25519 public key, and the trusted Authenticode publisher thumbprint. Useful commands for a configured production installation are:

& "$env:LOCALAPPDATA\Talley Connect\TalleyConnectAgent.exe" updates status
& "$env:LOCALAPPDATA\Talley Connect\TalleyConnectAgent.exe" updates check
& "$env:LOCALAPPDATA\Talley Connect\TalleyConnectAgent.exe" updates apply
& "$env:LOCALAPPDATA\Talley Connect\TalleyConnectAgent.exe" updates rollback
& "$env:LOCALAPPDATA\Talley Connect\TalleyConnectAgent.exe" updates disable

The updater verifies the signed manifest, size, SHA-256, and publisher before a swap. It retains the previous signed executable and restores it if startup fails.

Revoke or reinstall

Revoke connector access in Setup before retiring a device. A reinstall needs a new pairing code. Do not delete or replay uncertain failed writes during the change.

Uninstall

Open Windows Settings → Apps → Installed apps, select Tally Connect, and choose Uninstall. The uninstaller stops and removes the scheduled Agent, local credentials, configuration, and Electron setup application. Support operators using the legacy ZIP can still run uninstall.ps1; add -KeepDiagnostics only with merchant approval to copy the redacted log before removal.
