The Scripts tab allows you to configure settings for install and uninstall scripts.
Important
Currently, scripts containing "${env:ProgramFiles(x86)}" or "${env:ProgramFiles}" cannot be uploaded as Cloudflare is falsely identifying them as a false positive related to Log4j exploits. We are actively working with them to resolve this, but as this is outside our control, we cannot provide an estimated resolution time.
To work around this issue, see the Resolution section of "TypeError: Failed to fetch" error when trying to upload a Pre or Post Script.

Click the Scripts tab to expose the configurable settings.
