This script first downloads the Windows 10 ISO image from the Microsoft website using the URL provided in the Proxmox wiki. It then creates a new VM in Proxmox with 4GB of memory and a 100GB virtual hard drive.

The script sets the CPU type to "kvm64," which is recommended for better performance on modern CPUs. It also enables the QXL display driver for improved graphics performance, adds a Spice console for remote desktop access, and sets the SMBIOS UUID to a unique value for each VM.

Please note that you should replace "mypassword" in the --password parameter with a secure password of your choice. Additionally, you may need to adjust the VM parameters, such as CPU, RAM, and storage allocation, based on your specific needs.
