Running your script, step by step

ZTILITY never changes your PC by itself. It writes a PowerShell file that you run when you are ready — and a second file that puts everything back.

1. 01

   Build your script

   Pick your options on the Optimizer page, or start from a preset and adjust. Keep “Create Restore Point” on.

2. 02

   Download both files

   Download ztility.ps1 and the matching undo script. Keep them together in one folder, for example C:\ZTILITY.

3. 03

   Open PowerShell as administrator

   Press Start, type PowerShell, right-click Windows PowerShell and choose “Run as administrator”.

4. 04

   Allow the script to run once

   Paste: Set-ExecutionPolicy Bypass -Scope Process -Force — this only affects the window you have open.

5. 05

   Run it

   Type cd C:\ZTILITY then .\ztility.ps1 and press Enter. Watch the highlighted section headings as it works.

6. 06

   Restart

   Restart Windows so every change takes effect. If something is wrong, run the undo script or roll back to the restore point.

The switches that need a second thought

9 options are marked Advanced. Each one removes or disables something Windows relies on.
