You have to be an IT pro to be able to make it work In the official guides that you can find, it is difficult to understand the consistency or logic Just an example from the guide "After installing the extension, clone this repository" - which "repository"? Possibly a "windows_helper_installer folder" - but where is it - on my entire C drive I can't find one Mayby you also have to install a "windows_helper" program - but from where - There is no zip file. And there i no better other explanation no matter how much you clicken through technical writings - Save yourself the time to spend on it AND to the developer - Maybe your program is good, but if you can't make a bulletproof guide to how it works and how it should be installed, for a user who is not in the "context", then it fails
