Answer 1

It's possible that you changed the execution policy for 64-bit powershell and the package manager is running 32-bit (or vice versa).

I'd try opening 32-bit console (PowerShell (x86)) and setting the execution policy there, as the error is definitely pointing to that kind of resolution.

Answer 2

Make sure you restart visual studio after changing execution policy so that changes can take effect. Also make sure you changed execution policy globally with administrator username and password.

Answer 3

We have been facing the same issue today with Visual Studio 2017 and Entity Framework 6, and none of the solutions proposed here has worked. As a workaround, this is the temporary solution we found to be able to use Entity Framework commands in the Package Manager Console:

Execute the following commands in the Package Manager Console

Set-ExecutionPolicy -Scope Process Bypass
Import-Module "your-solution-directory/packages/EntityFramework<your EF version>/EntityFramework.psd1"

Actually, the Import-Module command is what the init1.ps1 script does.
