Warning
Please be aware that this process isn’t risk free, and that neither AndroidPIT nor I will take any responsibility for damages incurred. It’s very important to follow the steps carefully and also be aware that this procedure will wipe all of the data on your phone, so make sure that you complete a full backup of your files, documents, pictures, videos, etc beforehand.
The script below will allow you to unlock the bootloader, root your device, save files and install apps as well as revert your phone back to the stock version.
Installation
Start by downloading the NRT_v1.9.9.sfx.exe and installing it on your PC. You’ll see a shortcut on your desktop like you see below.

Double click on the ‘’Nexus Root Toolkit’’. It will complete a small search and ask you for your phone model as well as your current version of Android. This information can be found in the Settings of your phone, under Settings, About phone.
Choose your phone model. / © ANDROIDPIT
Once the window is open, it will explain how to activate USB debugging on your Nexus device.

Just to repeat what it says in the window and activate the developer options in your phone by tapping on the build number 7 times. Once you see that the settings have been unlocked, hit back and choose the Developer settings which now appear above About phone. Tap on USB Debugging and choose OK.
It will now search again and if you are lacking any type of required file, it will suggest you download them and show you how to get them.

Done! Your Nexus device has now been rooted and the bootloader unlocked. If you require extra help, you can check out the tutorial video.

This would be great for the Galaxy S4. Save a lot of hassle.
