The script reads its configuration from a JSON file named config.json located in the same directory as the script. The configuration options include:
- `enableRegularVersion`: Boolean flag to enable the downloading of the regular version of Chrome.
- `enableForcedVersion`: Boolean flag to enable the downloading of the forced update version of Chrome.
- `enableNumberedVersion`: Boolean flag to enable the automatic renaming of the folder to the newest version of Chrome **⚠️This config requires administrative privileges when executing the script!⚠️**
- `logDateFormat`: A string defining the format of timestamps in logs.
### Configuration File
The `config.json` file should be structured as follows:
```json
{
"options": {
"enableRegularVersion": true,
"enableForcedVersion": false,
"enableNumberedVersion": false
},
"logDateFormat": "dd/MM/yyyy HH:mm:ss"
}
```
#### Date Configuration
- `enableRegularVersion`: A boolean flag to enable downloading and installing the regular version of Chrome.
- `enableForcedVersion`: A boolean flag to enable downloading and installing the forced update version of Chrome.
- `enableNumberedVersion`: A boolean flag to enable the automatic renaming of the folder to the newest version of Chrome. ⚠️ **This option requires administrative privileges when executing the script!** ⚠️
- `logDateFormat`: A string defining the format of timestamps in logs. The default format is `dd/MM/yyyy HH:mm:ss`.

### Numbered Version
`enableNumberedVersion`: Set this to `true` to enable automatic renaming of the folder based on the downloaded Chrome version. This action requires administrative privileges.
## Configuration File (`config.json`)
For example, if this option is enabled, the folders will be named as follows:
```json
{
"options": {
"enableRegularVersion": true,
"enableForcedVersion": false,
"enableNumberedVersion": false
},
"logDateFormat": "yyyy'/'MM'/'dd hh:mm:ss tt"
}
`false`:
```
Chrome - VERSION_force_update
```
`true`:
```json
Chrome - 125.0.6422.113_force_update
```
The `enableNumberedVersion` configuration requires administrative privileges because the only way to obtain the Chrome version number is by installing the MSI file and retrieving the version from the Windows registry.
