See the PowerShell Gallery for the complete details and instructions. Don't forget to set the correct Execution Policy.
Download BurntToast.zip from Releases page and extract the contents into $env:userprofile\Documents\WindowsPowerShell\modules\BurntToast
(you may have to create these directories if they don't exist.)

Please remember to "unblock" the zip file before extracting the contents. Not doing so will result in the module not working correctly. This can be done via the file properties or with Unblock-File
