Check Execution Policy

Read more About Execution Policies

All PowerShell execution policies:

• Restricted – No scripts can be run. Windows PowerShell can be used only in interactive mode.
• AllSigned – Only scripts that are signed by a trusted publisher can be run.
• RemoteSigned – Downloaded scripts must be signed by a trusted publisher before they can be run.
• Unrestricted – No restrictions; all Windows PowerShell scripts can be run.

The “Get-ExecutionPolicy” cmdlet shows the current PowerShell execution policy.

The “Set-ExecutionPolicy” cmdlet changes the PowerShell execution policy.

Example –

• By default in my windows 10 client machine. Scope of execution policy was set to Undefined. I used Get-ExecutionPolicy -List command
• By using Set-ExecutionPolicy -ExecutionPolicy RemoteSigned command and it changed LocalMachine scope to RemoteSigned.
