+Automated setup of Windows 10 through Boxstarter/Chocolatey.
+
+## Initial setup
+
+* Install Windows normally. Use a local account, and reject all the data
+ collection features such as location, Cortana, etc.
+
+* Activate Windows so that personalization commands can be run successfully
+
+* Open an Administrator PowerShell: type Win+X, click on
+ `Windows PowerShell (Admin)`
+
+* Lift the execution policy restrictions to be able to execute Boxstarter
+ PowerShell scripts:\
+ `Set-ExecutionPolicy Unrestricted -Force`
+
+* Install Boxstarter:\
+ `. { iwr -useb https://boxstarter.org/bootstrapper.ps1 } | iex; Get-Boxstarter -Force`
+
+* Get the raw URL of the Boxstarter installation script you want. It should be a
+ file ending in `.ps1` in the same folder as this README file. Be sure to get
+ the raw URL that just gives you the raw file content itself.
+
+* Run the Boxstarter installation script:\
+ `Install-BoxstarterPackage -PackageName URL_TO_RAW_INSTALLATION_SCRIPT_HERE`
