This utility is a compilation of Windows tasks I perform on each Windows system I use. It is meant to streamline *installs*, debloat with *tweaks*, troubleshoot with *config*, and fix Windows *updates*. I am extremely picky about any contributions to keep this project clean and efficient.

## 🛠️ Build & Develop
|
||||
|
||||
> [!NOTE]
|
||||
> Winutil is a relatively large script, so it's split into multiple files which're combined into a single `.ps1` file using a custom compiler. This makes maintaining the project a lot easiler.
|
||||
|
||||
Get a copy of the source code, this can be done using GitHub UI (`Code -> Download ZIP`), or by cloning (downloading) the repo using git.
|
||||
|
||||
If git is installed, run the following commands under a PowerShell window to clone and move into project's directory:
|
||||
```ps1
|
||||
git clone --depth 1 "https://github.com/ChrisTitusTech/winutil.git"
|
||||
cd winutil
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
To build the project, run the Compile Script under a PowerShell window (admin permissions IS NOT required):
|
||||
```ps1
|
||||
.\Compile.ps1
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
You'll see a new file named `winutil.ps1`, which's created by `Compile.ps1` script, now you can run it as admin and a new window will popup, enjoy your own compiled version of WinUtil :)
