Noob install on win10

Sun, 30 Aug 2020 11:32:07 +0000

Here are my experience:

Getting Powershell:

not clear what version to download - Powershell 5 link did not take me to the a clear download
Powershell Core - also not clear what version? (I chose win-x64.msi under assets)

Running Powershell for the first time:

ran powershell for the first time and chose the default option -> not correct and needed to fix that later via settings

Running install for the first time:

worst is that I needed to try a few times - a good default (1) is not specified clearly and the Powershell window closes too quickly to read error/success

Suggest that the guide be updated to clearly indicate the following:

install Powershell: download the win-x64.msi or the correct selection from Github Assets
run win-install.ps1 with powershell and select [Y] if prompted to trust application, also choose Option 1 for install location when prompted

Note: I am posting here because I am not able to post feedback to JIRA
