PowerShell scripts are saved with a .ps1 file extension and can be executed in the PowerShell environment. Running a PowerShell script is a simple process and can be done in a few different ways.
The first method is to run the script by entering the full path to the script file in the PowerShell window:
.\path\to\your\script.ps1
Replace “path\to\your\script.ps1” with the actual path to the script you want to run.
Another way to run a PowerShell script is by using the Invoke-Expression
cmdlet. This cmdlet allows you to run a string as a PowerShell expression:
Invoke-Expression -Command ".\path\to\your\script.ps1"
Finally, you can also run a PowerShell script by double-clicking on the script file in Windows Explorer. This will launch the PowerShell environment and run the script.
In conclusion, running a PowerShell script is a straightforward process. By using one of the methods outlined above, you can easily run scripts in the PowerShell environment and automate tasks.
Of course, there is a better way to run PowerShell if you want to safely delegate your scripts to others, and that’s using PowerScripts.
