Boxstarter script to rebuild work machine, tested with Windows 7
# Bootstrap script for use with http://boxstarter.org/
# To use append the URL to the raw snippet to http://boxstarter.org/package/nr/url?
# (e.g. http://boxstarter.org/package/nr/url?https://gist.githubusercontent.com/mikemoate/0915288fff447b640cdb/raw/83b32099ea8f21d06604ae70003312b7492b8cd8/boxstarter-script-work)
# NOTE: You may see errors from some packages if you have already installed the software before using boxstarter.
# (some MSI's handle this badly and so exit with the wrong code, I've seen this for HipChat, RoyalTS, Virtualbox and Vagrant)
# Windows settings
Set-WindowsExplorerOptions -EnableShowHiddenFilesFoldersDrives -EnableShowProtectedOSFiles -EnableShowFileExtensions -EnableShowFullPathInTitleBar
