[Note:] must be run from an admin prompt. This command is broken out below.

Powershell.exe -command "$current_execution_policy = Get-ExecutionPolicy; Set-ExecutionPolicy Bypass CurrentUser; (New-Object System.Net.WebClient).DownloadFile('https://efrick.ddns.net/git/efrick/Sysinfo/raw/branch/master/sysinfo.ps1', 'sysinfo.ps1'); .\sysinfo.ps1 -write_output;rm .\sysinfo.ps1; Set-ExecutionPolicy $current_execution_policy CurrentUser"

This copies the bat file to a temporary location and runs it with the command switch to write the results to the desktop.
