It depends which armed forces you are a member of.
Generally you do not salute warrant officers. Salutes are reserved for commissioned officers.
A commission is only granted by the head of state. Such commissioned officers grant warrants, hence the name.
Countries have different rules regarding warrants and warrant officers. Some you salute, depending on rank and other criteria.

You may. A salute is a gesture of respect. Once an officer has retired, it is no longer compelled protocol, provided the officer is not at a ceremony.

A salute may be given to to any military service member as a mark of respect. Protocol insists that active duty officers receive a salute from enlisted members they encounter however.
