for windows

Step 1, enable powershell scripts

this step will allow you to run complex powershell scripts to simplify the process of installing later on.

first, open a powershell window as administrator by pressing the windows key then typing "powershell", then right click and choose the option "run as administrator" and click "allow" when it asks for permissions.

now, copy "set-executionpolicy unrestricted" into the powershell window (do not copy the quotation marks) then, press enter to run the command

it will now ask you if you want to change the execution policy, and you type "Y" (again without the quotation marks) and press enter

if no error in red text appear that means you were successfully,

do NOT close this window, as we will use it in the next step

step 2, downloading and running the setup script

now, copy the following

Invoke-WebRequest -Uri https://gist.githubusercontent.com/Krayfighter/34c61dc6b9355ba0b661ed336b487e4f/raw/a26f1066063f55b0566dbfd636685af227c8caaa/setup_nscalc.ps1 -Outfile ./setup.ps1

then paste it into powershell the powershell window and press enter

this will ask you if you want to run scripts when it does, type "A" and press enter

now, the installation should be complete

if there were errors anywhere in the installation process please some troublshooting, and open a new issue on the github page here

Thank you for trying nscalc
