 You will notice that the password is not actually printed out, this is a security preference, preventing it from being visible or saved anywhere easily accessible in the system.
 
 # Guide
+
+#There are 2 ways to use this tool
+
+If you wish to generate a password anywhere and anytime with a single command follow these steps: 
 - After cloning the repo, cd into `bash-password-cp`.
-- Run `chmod u+x run.sh`
-- Run `sh ./run.sh <integer>` whereby the integer is a number between 6 and 30 (exclusive) specifying the length of the password
+- Run `chmod u+x installer.sh`
+- Run './installer.sh "<OS>" where OS is the operating system running on your machine. As of now, only MacOS and Windows are supported.
+- Close the shell and open it again. You might get a message at the top, ignore it.
+- Use the command `passgen <integer>` whereby the integer is a number between 6 and 30 (exclusive) specifying the length of the password
 - Paste the password
 
-You could also make it an alias in your command line. For example, if you're using `zsh`, you could run `alias -g [alias-name]="/path/to/project/run.sh"`. Then you type `[alias-name] 14`.
+If you don't wish to turn it into a command and would rather just use the script everytime, follow these steps:
+- After cloning the repo, cd into 'bash-password-cp'.
+- run 'nano <OS>_version.sh' Where <OS> is "win" or "mac" for windows or mac respectively.
+- write "passgen $1" at the very end of the file (after the '}')
+- save and exit (ctrl S, ctrl X for windows. Cmd idk, cmd idk for mac)
+- Run 'chmod u+x <os>_version.sh' 
+- Run './<os>_version.sh <integer>' where integer is a number between 6 and 30 (exclusive) specifying the length of the password
+- Paste the password
+
+
+That is all, thank you for downloading the tool and have a good day :)
