### Via Windows Powershell script
**NOTE**: You may need to `Set-ExecutionPolicy RemoteSigned` for this to work, by default, windows will use `Restricted`.
1. Open Powershell as Administrator
2. Type `Set-ExecutionPolicy RemoteSigned`
3. It might ask you to confirm, you should read the contents of [install.ps1](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/bmFtZQ/edge-frfox/create-install-script/install.ps1) and the script below to verify it for yourself.
4. Close out of Powershell and start a new normal instance of Powershell (good practice)
5. Paste the following into powershell and hit enter:
Paste this command into powershell
```ps
(curl -Uri https://raw.githubusercontent.com/bmFtZQ/edge-frfox/create-install-script/install.ps1 -UseBasicParsing).Content > $env:temp/installer.ps1; powershell $env:temp\installer.ps1
```
# Attach '-ArgumentList @('uninstall')' inside the string at the end to uninstall.
Uninstallation for Windows is done by attaching 'uninstall' to the end of the above powershell command. So, `...\installer.ps1 uninstall`
powershell -nop -ExecutionPolicy Bypass -c "Invoke-Command -ScriptBlock ([scriptblock]::Create([System.Text.Encoding]::UTF8.GetString((New-Object Net.WebClient).DownloadData('https://raw.githubusercontent.com/DanielSGH/edge-frfox/create-install-script/install.ps1'))))"
```

### Manual Installation
