• Open a modern Windows Terminal or Powershell (NOT cmd), and execute the following commands to install scoop:

  • Set-ExecutionPolicy RemoteSigned -scope CurrentUser (This might not work if your execution policy is already set or if your PowerShell version is older. Latest PowerShell is recommended)
  • Invoke-Expression (New-Object System.Net.WebClient).DownloadString('https://get.scoop.sh')
  • scoop install curl
  • Remove-item alias:curl
  • java -version (Make sure Java 11+ is installed and visible)
