1. Make a place to keep installed binaries. You only need to do this once, not for every release:
```
mkdir -force $HOME\bin >$null
$ENV:PATH += ";"+$HOME+"\bin"
[Environment]::SetEnvironmentVariable("Path", [Environment]::GetEnvironmentVariable("Path", [EnvironmentVariableTarget]::User)+";"+$HOME+"\bin", [EnvironmentVariableTarget]::User)
```

Expand-Archive hledger-windows-x64.zip -Force -DestinationPath AppData\Roaming\local\bin
hledger --version; hledger-ui --version; hledger-web --version # should show $REL
```
2. Download and install the release binaries:
```
cd $HOME\bin
curl https://github.com/simonmichael/hledger/releases/download/$REL/hledger-windows-x64.zip -OutFile hledger-windows-x64.zip
Expand-Archive hledger-windows-x64.zip -DestinationPath . -Force
cd $HOME
hledger --version; hledger-ui --version; hledger-web --version # should show $REL; if not, check why: where.exe hledger
```
3. Ensure a default journal file exists, and without a problematic encoding (I'm not sure if/why "ascii" was needed here).

And ensure a default journal file exists, and without a problematic encoding (I'm not sure if/why "ascii" was needed here).
This will allow you to start hledger-web by double-clicking on its icon if you wish.
```
out-file -append -encoding ascii $HOME/.hledger.journal
```
```
out-file -append -encoding ascii $HOME/.hledger.journal
