Once Human Spyware Blocker

This script blocks spyware by AppsFlyer when running the game "Once Human" via steam. It modifies the Windows registry and hosts file to achieve this. It's made to be adaptable to any other steam game with AppsFlyer spyware. Just change the variables; $gamename, $gameUrl, and $gameExecutableName.

Features

• Blocks AppsFlyer domains by adding entries to the HOSTS file.
• Removes AppsFlyer-related entries from the Windows registry.
• Launches "Once Human" via Steam with lower privileges to avoid further modifications.
• Monitors the game process and keeps the blocks in place until the game exits.

• Administrative privileges (the script will prompt for elevation if not run as an administrator).
• Enable PowerShell scripts
  1.Start Windows PowerShell with the "Run as Administrator" option.
  2 .Enable running unsigned scripts by entering:

  Usage
