I have downloaded installer from below link and extracted in c:\azuremigratefiles (azuremigratefiles is new folder created in c drive).

After trying executing DRInstaller.ps1 I am getting a below error.

    Hi Ketan Kute

    We believe the path you entered may be incorrect. If you’re trying to run a script or access files from C:\dr\DRAppliance,, you’ll need to change the directory to that location first.

     cd C:\dr\DRAppliance

     Then, try running the PowerShell script .\DRInstaller.ps1
