PowerShell 7.3 - Trouble with Setting Execution Policy for Remote Scripts in Windows Server
I'm trying to configure I'm relatively new to this, so bear with me... I'm running into issues when trying to set the execution policy for scripts that are executed remotely on a Windows Server using PowerShell 7.3. I want to set the policy to `RemoteSigned`, but when I run the command, I'm working with an behavior that states: `ExecutionPolicyChangeFailed: Unable to update the execution policy. The execution policy is set to 'Restricted' in the current user scope, and want to be changed.` I've tried using `Set-ExecutionPolicy RemoteSigned -Scope CurrentUser` and even attempted to run PowerShell as an Administrator, but the same scenario continues. Here’s what I’ve done so far: 1. Checked the current execution policy with `Get-ExecutionPolicy -List`, and the output shows `Restricted` for the `CurrentUser` scope. 2. Attempted to set the execution policy using different scopes like `Process` and `LocalMachine`, but received similar permission errors. 3. I ensured that my user has the necessary permissions by running `whoami /groups` and confirmed that I'm part of the Power Users group. Here's the command I used to check the execution policy: ```powershell Get-ExecutionPolicy -List ``` And here's the command I used to try to set it: ```powershell Set-ExecutionPolicy RemoteSigned -Scope CurrentUser ``` When I attempt to run a remote script using `Invoke-Command`, I still receive the behavior: `Script want to be loaded because running scripts is disabled on this system.` I even tried executing `Set-ExecutionPolicy` at the session level while using `Enter-PSSession`, but it didn’t help. How can I resolve this execution policy scenario effectively for scripts that are run on a remote Windows Server? Any insights or best practices would be greatly appreciated! For context: I'm using Powershell on Linux. What am I doing wrong? For context: I'm using Powershell on Windows 11. Any ideas what could be causing this? My development environment is Debian. Is there a simpler solution I'm overlooking? I'm developing on macOS with Powershell. Thanks for any help you can provide!
