## Windows x64
We recommend configuring the runner under "<DRIVE>:\actions-runner". This will help avoid issues related to service identity folder permissions and long file path restrictions on Windows
``` 
// Create a folder under the drive root
mkdir \actions-runner ; cd \actions-runner
// Download the latest runner package
Invoke-WebRequest -Uri https://github.com/actions/runner/releases/download/v<RUNNER_VERSION>/actions-runner-win-x64-<RUNNER_VERSION>.zip -OutFile actions-runner-win-x64-<RUNNER_VERSION>.zip
// Extract the installer
Add-Type -AssemblyName System.IO.Compression.FileSystem ; 
[System.IO.Compression.ZipFile]::ExtractToDirectory("$HOME\Downloads\actions-runner-win-x64-<RUNNER_VERSION>.zip", "$PWD")
```
