A PowerShell Script to install fonts on Windows 11

$

I would like help with the following ps script that I took from reddit to install fonts for all Windows 11 users, below is the original script:

#set font source location$FontFolder = "FONT LOCATION"$FontItem = Get-Item -Path $FontFolder#go through all folders in source and list all fon, otf, ttc and ttf files$FontList = Get-ChildItem -Path $PSScriptRoot -Include ('*.fon','*.otf','*.ttc','*.ttf') -Recurseforeach ($Font in $FontList) {Write-Host 'Installing font -' $Font.BaseNameCopy-Item $Font "C:\Windows\Fonts"#register font for all usersNew-ItemProperty -Name $Font.BaseName -Path "HKLM:\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Fonts" -PropertyType string -Value $Font.name}

In the original script I need to set the full path of the folder where the fonts are, and if I copy this folder to another drive I have to update the path before running it, but what I need and want is for it to recognize the folder where it is being executed without me having to set the path, as happens with a batch script that starts with the command cd /d "%~dp0", like the one below that I use to install the Notepad++:

mode con lines=30 cols=70@ECHO offcd /d "%~dp0"cd /d "%~dp0" && ( if exist "%temp%\getadmin.vbs" del "%temp%\getadmin.vbs" ) && fsutil dirty query %systemdrive% 1>nul 2>nul || (  echo Set UAC = CreateObject^("Shell.Application"^) : UAC.ShellExecute "cmd.exe", "/k cd ""%~sdp0"" && %~s0 %params%", "", "runas", 1 >> "%temp%\getadmin.vbs" && "%temp%\getadmin.vbs" && exit /B )clsecho.@echo  ßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßß@echo   ßßßß@echo    ßß           S O F T E H A R D    S O L U T I O N S           ßß@echo     ßßßß@echo      ßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßß@echo       ßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßß@echo        ßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßß@echo         ßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßß@echo         ßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßß@echo        ßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßß@echo       ßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßß@echo      ßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßß@echo     ßßßß@echo    ßß                    I N F O R M A T I C A                   ßß@echo   ßßßß@echo  ßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßß@CHCP 1252 >NUL                                                            @Title Silent installation of Notepad++ software version 64-bit..          echo.                                                                      echo.

Installation completed successfully - Starting Notepad Plus Plus 64-bit!@Start explorer.exe "%ProgramData%\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Notepad++.lnk"timeout /t 4exit

I search for the equivalent "cd /d "%~dp0"" command and I just found this "$PSScriptRoot", did anyone knows if this will solve my problem?

Thanks in advance for any help.

Best Regards
