 ## Development

+### Linux / MacOS
 If you don't know how to set up a venv, type in you terminal (while in the project directory):
 ```bash
-muddle $ python3 -m venv venv
-muddle $ source ./venv/bin/activate
-muddle $ pip3 install -r requirements.txt
-muddle $ ./muddle --gui
+$ python3 -m venv venv
+$ source ./venv/bin/activate
+(venv) $ pip3 install -r requirements.txt
+(venv) $ ./muddle -v --gui
 ```

+### Windows
+
+1. Install (Python)[python.org], and in the installer enable **Add Python to the path**.
+2. Navigate to the project directory using Explorer, then Shift + Right Click and *Open Powershell Window here*
+3. In the Powershell you can now create a VirtualEnv by typing
+```powershell
+PS> python -m venv venv
+PS> .\venv\Scripts\activate
+(venv) PS> pip3 install -r requirements.txt
+(venv) PS> python muddle.py -v --gui
+```
+
+#### VirtualEnv says `running scripts is diabled on this System`
+If when activating the virtualenv using powershell you get something like this
+```
+.\venv\Scripts\activate : File C:\Users\NaoPross\Documents\Code\Muddle\venv\Scripts\Activate.ps1 cannot be loaded
+because running scripts is disabled on this system. For more information, see about_Execution_Policies at
+https:/go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkID=135170.
+At line:1 char:1
++ .\venv\Scripts\activate
++ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+    + CategoryInfo          : SecurityError: (:) [], PSSecurityException
+    + FullyQualifiedErrorId : UnauthorizedAccess
+```
+You need to change your ExecutionPolicy, to do that you need to type the following to allow for scripts to be executed
+```powershell
+PS> Get-ExecutionPolicy -List                            # see the current settings
+PS> Set-ExecutionPolicy RemoteSigned -Scope CurrentUser  # allow your user to run script
+```
