PowerShell says “execution of scripts is disabled on this system.”

Question

I am trying to run a cmd file that calls a PowerShell script from cmd.exe, but I am getting this error:

Management_Instal

Answer 1

If you are in an environment where you are not an administrator, you can set the Execution Policy just for you, and it will not require administrator.

Set-ExecutionPolicy -Scope "CurrentUser" -ExecutionPolicy "RemoteSigned"

or

Set-ExecutionPolicy -Scope "CurrentUser" -ExecutionPolicy "Unrestricted"

You can read all about it in the help entry.
