The developement system this script was tested on used self signed CUCM certificates. To stop certificate errors, a Dot NET core class is used within the PowserShell script to overcome this error. This means you will need Dot NET installed on your target PC, or use signed certificates.
If you decide to use signed certificates comment out lines 78 to 94 of the PowerShell script, then change the CUCM IP addresses for fully quailified domain names.

powershell.exe -WindowStyle Hidden -ExecutionPolicy Bypass -File "C:\<PathToYourScripts>\scriptname.ps1"

Then just double click the shortcut like you are starting an application. Check the correct path to the powershell executable on your system.
