$file = "$env:TEMP\{0}" -f $uri.Segments[-1];
[System.Net.WebClient]::new().DownloadFile( $uri, $file );
Start-Process -FilePath $file -ArgumentList '/quiet /norestart' -Wait;
Remove-Item -LiteralPath $file -ErrorAction 'SilentlyContinue';

    & { 
        $ProgressPreference = 'SilentlyContinue';
        Invoke-WebRequest -Uri "https://api.github.com/repos/${user}/${repository}/releases?per_page=100" -UseBasicParsing -Headers @{

        return [uri]::new( $b );
    }
} | Select-Object -First 1;
    
if( -not $uri ) {
    throw 'Cannot determine URL of latest Brave installer.';
}

$file = "${env:TEMP}\{0}" -f $uri.Segments[-1];

This script handles the Windows PE stage of an unattended installation. It sets the keyboard layout, locates installation media, loads drivers, partitions and formats the disk, applies the Windows image, configures boot settings, and copies necessary files. It also includes steps to disable 8.3 file names, disable Windows Defender, and set the device setup region.
