+
+## 🎮 Usage
+
+### Getting started
+
+1. Open PowerShell as Administrator.
+2. Temporarily allow script execution:
+```powershell
+Set-ExecutionPolicy -ExecutionPolicy Unrestricted -Scope Process
+```
+
+> 🛑 Important: This command temporarily adjusts the execution policy to allow script execution for the current process only, minimizing security risks. 
+> Always examine scripts before executing them to ensure safety.
+
+3. Run the GUI script:
+```powershell
+.\PowerShellScriptGUITemplate.ps1
+```
+
+Alternatively, for a streamlined approach, combine the execution policy adjustment with script launch in a single line:
+```powershell
+Set-ExecutionPolicy -ExecutionPolicy Unrestricted -Scope Process; .\PowerShellScriptGUITemplate.ps1
+```
+
+> This command executes the main script, bringing up the GUI for interactive use. 
+> The template provides a user-friendly graphical interface, facilitating navigation through various automation tasks and options with ease.
