  1. 1.
    Download the installation file
curl "https://awscli.amazonaws.com/awscli-exe-linux-x86_64.zip" -o "awscliv2.zip"
  1. 2.
    Unzip the installer
unzip awscliv2.zip
  1. 3.
    Run the install program
sudo ./aws/install
  1. 1.
    Download and run the AWS CLI MSI installer for Windows (64-bit):
​https://awscli.amazonaws.com/AWSCLIV2.msi​
Alternatively, you can run the msiexec command to run the MSI installer.
c:\ msiexec.exe /i https://awscli.amazonaws.com/AWSCLIV2.msi
  1. 2.
    To confirm the installation, open the Start menu, search for cmd to open a command prompt window, and at the command prompt use the aws --version command.
c:\ aws --version
aws-cli/2.7.24 Python/3.8.8 Windows/10 exe/AMD64 prompt/off
  1. 1.
    Download the file using the curl command. The -o option specifies the file name that the downloaded package is written to. In this example, the file is written to AWSCLIV2.pkg in the current folder.
curl "https://awscli.amazonaws.com/AWSCLIV2.pkg" -o "AWSCLIV2.pkg"
  1. 2.
    Run the standard macOS installer program, specifying the downloaded .pkg file as the source. Use the -pkg parameter to specify the name of the package to install and the -target / parameter for which drive to install the package to. The files are installed to /usr/local/aws-cli, and a symlink is automatically created in /usr/local/bin. You must include sudo on the command to grant write permissions to those folders.
sudo installer -pkg ./AWSCLIV2.pkg -target /
After installation is complete, debug logs are written to /var/log/install.log.
  1. 3.
    To verify that the shell can find and run the aws command in your $PATH, use the following commands:
​
$ which aws
/usr/local/bin/aws
$ aws --version
aws-cli/2.9.23 Python/3.9.11 Linux/5.15.0-1030-aws exe/x86_64.ubuntu.22 prompt/o
