Windows-Specific Issues

PowerShell Execution Policy

Error: "Running scripts is disabled on this system"

Fix:

powershell
Set-ExecutionPolicy -ExecutionPolicy RemoteSigned -Scope CurrentUser

Line Ending Warnings (CRLF/LF)

Warning: "LF will be replaced by CRLF"

This is harmless. To suppress:

bash
git config core.autocrlf true
