This isn't Powershell, but it works in every version of 10 so far (currently on 1903). I have the batch and XML on a flash drive that I run it from. With it in the xml file, I don't have to remember or write down the password/key.

Batch file:

Netsh WLAN delete profile "SSID"
Netsh WLAN add profile filename=".\WhateverYouWantToCallIt.XML"
Netsh WLAN connect name="$NAME"

WhateverYouWantToCallIt.XML file:

    SSIDSHOULDGOHERE
    
        
            XXXXXX
            SSIDGOESHERE
        
    
    ESS
    auto
    
        
            
                WPA2PSK
                AES
                false
            
            
                passPhrase
                false
                PASSWORDGOESHERE
            
        
    
    
        false
