 # DOWNLOADING THIS SCRIPT:
 # While this script is clearly safe, Windows may block this file. You will need to unblock it if that's the case.

 # You can revert this change with the command: set-executionpolicy restricted
 #
 # COPYING AND PASTING THIS SCRIPT:
 # Copy and paste into an empty notepad window. Save it as "what_ever_you_want_to_name_it.ps1".
