Side note ... I agree in the sense that via an exe you can more easily 
provide a full installable solution without having to understand PS or BAT 
files?

Just FYI *I'm already running it as an exe*. Its a trick that various good 
Batch-to-Exe utilities do well on Windows for non-programmers. Basically 
you write a BAT file and use the tool to embed the BAT, the PS1, and an 
ICON in an executable. On run it extracts the bat and ps1 to a Temp 
directory and initiates the bat. Deletes on exit. Works well. I got into 
the method a lot as PortableApps will natively recognise ".exe" but not 
".bat" without a lot of extra work.

The downsides are ...

1 -- That won't work well for "locked-down" systems that won't allow 
installion of exe

2 -- The Configuration/Settings would need to be external to the ps1 script 
(but that's not a bad thing!)
