    When installing fresh, I currently install all non-integratable KBs that are .msu files with wusa.exe from Setupcomplete.cmd. I also installed WMF 5.0 (KB3134760) this way. Since WMF 5.1 has replaced 5.0, I would like install it in the same manner, but now along with the .msu, there is also a .ps1 script to do the installation. I'm not sure how to go about installing WMF with a Powershell script at this stage via the Setupcomplete.cmd. Anyone know how I can do this or another way to automate the WMF 5.1 install?

    The ps1 script is ment as precaution and to help verify and automate the installation

    you can safely ignore it and install the msu file directly, as long as the prerequisites are met:
    .NET 4.5 or later installed
    WMF 3.0 not installed
