How to active the scripts execution in Powershell?

Get-ExecutionPolicy

Policy table

Restriced AllSigned RemoteSigned Unrestriced ByPass
No script can be run. Windows Powershell can only be used in interactive mode. Only scripts signed by a trusted publisher can run. Download scripts must be signed by a trusted publisher before they can be run. No restrictions. All scripts can be run, but download scripts will prompt for permission before it runs. All scripts can be run, without warnings or prompts.

Example: My Powershell is using RemoteSigned policy

Hyper

Set-ExecutionPolicy -Scope CurrentUser RemoteSigned

How to install PSReadline and oh-my-posh

  • Install PSReadline
Install-Module -Name PSReadLine -AllowPrerelease -Scope CurrentUser -Force -SkipPublisherCheck
  • If you don't have an -AllowPrerelease flag, upgrade PowerShellGet with:
Install-Module -Name PowerShellGet -Force first.
  • Install oh-my-posh
Install-Module oh-my-posh -Scope CurrentUser

(Not necessary)

  • Install Get-ChildItemColor
Install-Module -Name Get-ChildItemColor -AllowPrerelease -Scope CurrentUser -Force -SkipPublisherCheck -AllowClobber

Configure Powershell profile

  • Into your powershell, execute this command:
if (!(Test-Path -Path $PROFILE )) { 
  New-Item -Type File -Path $PROFILE -Force
