2. Install Git (winget install --id Git.Git --source winget)
3. Enable DotNet 3.5 (Enable-WindowsOptionalFeature -Online -FeatureName NetFx3 -All)
4. Re-register msxml for 64bit (this is some COM component used in the tests without it tests fail!!)

PS> cd $env:windir\SysWOW64
PS> regsvr32 msxml3.dll
PS> regsvr32 msxml6.dll

5. Clone the v6 branch from https://github.com/kaludios/wix.git (includes some extra commits from the main branch of wix to update to dot net 8.0 and comment out failing tests as well as one commit to ignore a test failure config)
6. Start Visual Studio Developer Prompt (& 'C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio\2022\Community\Common7\Tools\Launch-VsDevShell.ps1')
7. run devbuild release
