Answer 1

Try running the Powershell GUI as Administrator

Answer 2

Please make a backup for the script.bs1 file

What works for me was deleting the script.bs1 file and running the execution command.

Answer 3

I was having the same issue and fixed it by changing the default program to open .ps1 files to PowerShell. It was set to Notepad.

Answer 4

If the file is copied from a network location, that is, another computer, Windows might have blocked that file. Right click on the file and click on the unblock button and see if it works.

Answer 5

Run below 2 commands in PowerShell window

1. Set-ExecutionPolicy unrestricted

2. Unblock-File -Path D:\PowerShell\Script.ps1

Answer 6

I have found out when running a PS1 file for a Mapped drive to Dropbox that I'm always getting this error. When opening up properties for the PS1 there is no "Unblock".

The only thing that work for me is

powershell.exe -executionpolicy bypass -file .\Script.ps1
