Now we will move to the installation of the script

- Open your python console
- cd to the downloaded project (Change directory)
- Type this
pip install -r requirements.txt - Let the installation be complete

The files in the nukeMe folder would be encrypted. Then a window will pop up which you can't close easily. Copy the key from the key.txt file in the root folder of the project and then click the first button. Nothing will happen. Now click the second button right below the first button. This will exit the window. Check the files in the folder nukeMe they have been restored
