Prerequisites

Download and install the latest Dokany Library Bundle → DokanSetup.exe
https://github.com/dokan-dev/dokany/releases/latest
Download and install the latest .NET 6 Desktop Runtime (Requirement for EZTools)
https://dotnet.microsoft.com/en-us/download/dotnet/6.0
Download and install the latest Windows package of ClamAV → .msi
https://www.clamav.net/downloads#otherversions
First Time Set-Up of ClamAV
Launch Windows PowerShell console as Administrator.
cd "C:\Program Files\ClamAV"
copy .\conf_examples\freshclam.conf.sample .\freshclam.conf
copy .\conf_examples\clamd.conf.sample .\clamd.conf
write.exe .\freshclam.conf → Comment or remove the line that says "Example".
write.exe .\clamd.conf → Comment or remove the line that says "Example".
https://docs.clamav.net/manual/Usage/Configuration.html#windows
Optimize ClamAV scan speed performance (30% faster)
Open "C:\Program Files\ClamAV\clamd.conf" with your text editor and search for: "Don't scan files and directories matching regex"
ExcludePath "\\heaps\\"
ExcludePath "\\handles\\"
ExcludePath "\\memmap\\vad-v\\"
ExcludePath "\\sys\\pool\\"
Create your free IPinfo account [approx. 1-2 min]
https://ipinfo.io/signup?ref=cli
Open "MemProcFS-Analyzer.ps1" with your text editor, search for "Please insert your Access Token here" and copy/paste your access token.
Install the NuGet package provider for PowerShell
Check if NuGet is available in the package providers by running the following command:
Get-PackageProvider -ListAvailable
If NuGet is not installed on your system yet, you have to install it.
Install-PackageProvider -Name NuGet -Force
Make sure to comment/uncomment (selectively enable or disable) the functions you want to play with (Elasticsearch and ELKImport are disabled by default). Check out the "Main" in the bottom of the script.
Done! :smiley:
