Notes on Installation

It has been observed a potential issue when running Package Manager as an executable on Windows: For unknown reasons, there is a buildup of "zombie" TCP sockets over time. It is unknown if this is caused by something in Package Manager or ffmpeg/ffprobe. As a remedy/hack, this script has been useful to avoid potential longterm issues.
