   tar -xf .\zrok*windows*.tar.gz -C "$env:TEMP\zrok"
   

2. Install the zrok executable and include HOME\bin in the search PATH.

   $source = Join-Path -Path $env:TEMP -ChildPath "zrok\zrok.exe"
   $destination = Join-Path -Path $env:USERPROFILE -ChildPath "bin\zrok.exe"
   New-Item -Path $destination -ItemType Directory -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue
   Copy-Item -Path $source -Destination $destination
   $env:path += ";"+$destination
