FAQ

Read the code you run carefully. Some functions are presented as an example only. You must be aware of the meaning of the functions in the code. If you're not sure what the script does, do not run it. Strongly recommended to run the script after fresh installation. Some of functions can be run also on LTSB/LTSC and on older versions of Windows and PowerShell (not recommended to run on the x86 systems).
