Windows installation process

On Windows, setting up the system is shared between the installer (msi or chocolatey) and crc preflights

MSI installer

• creates the crc-users group
• adds the current user to the crc-users group
• sets up the admin-helper service
• creates the registry key required by hvsock
• adds the user to the hyper-v admin group
• installs Hyper-V
• configures SMB for file sharing

Chocolatey

• creates the crc-users group
• sets up the admin-helper service
• creates the registry key required by hvsock
• installs hyper-v

CRC preflights

• checks if the crc-users group exists
• checks if hyper-v is installed and running
• checks if the hvsock registry key exists
• checks if the admin-helper service is running
• adds the current user to the crc-users group and hyper-v admin group
• starts the crc daemon task
