How to run a PowerShell script
How do I run a PowerShell script?
- I have a开发者_StackOverflow社区 script named myscript.ps1
- I have all the necessary frameworks installed
- I set that execution policy thing
- I have followed the instructions on this MSDN help page
and am trying to run it like so:
powershell.exe 'C:\my_path\yada_yada\run_import_script.ps1'
(with or without--noexit
)
which returns exactly nothing, except that the file name is output.
No error, no message, nothing. Oh, when I add -noexit
, the same thing happens, but I remain within PowerShell and have to exit manually.
The .ps1 file is supposed to run a program and return the error level dependent on that program's output. But I'm quite sure I'm not even getting there yet.
What am I doing wrong?
Prerequisites:
- You need to be able to run PowerShell as an administrator
- You need to set your PowerShell execution policy to a permissive value or be able to bypass it
Steps:
Launch Windows PowerShell as an Administrator, and wait for the
PS>
prompt to appearNavigate within PowerShell to the directory where the script lives:
PS> cd C:\my_path\yada_yada\ (enter)
Execute the script:
PS> .\run_import_script.ps1 (enter)
Or: you can run the PowerShell script from the Command Prompt (cmd.exe
) like this:
powershell -noexit "& ""C:\my_path\yada_yada\run_import_script.ps1""" (enter)
according to Invoking a PowerShell script from cmd.exe (or Start | Run) by Kirk Munro.
Or you could even run your PowerShell script asynchronously from your C# application.
If you are on PowerShell 2.0, use PowerShell.exe's -File
parameter to invoke a script from another environment, like cmd.exe. For example:
Powershell.exe -File C:\my_path\yada_yada\run_import_script.ps1
If you want to run a script without modifying the default script execution policy, you can use the bypass switch when launching Windows PowerShell.
powershell [-noexit] -executionpolicy bypass -File <Filename>
Type:
powershell -executionpolicy bypass -File .\Test.ps1
NOTE: Here Test.ps1
is the PowerShell script.
I've had the same problem, and I tried and tried... Finally I used:
powershell.exe -noexit "& 'c:\Data\ScheduledScripts\ShutdownVM.ps1'"
And put this line in a batch-file, and this works.
If you only have PowerShell 1.0, this seems to do the trick well enough:
powershell -command - < c:\mypath\myscript.ps1
It pipes the script file to the PowerShell command line.
Pretty easy. Right click the .ps1 file in Windows and in the shell menu click on Run with PowerShell.
- Open PowerShell in administrator mode
- Run:
set-executionpolicy unrestricted
- Open a regular PowerShell window and run your script.
I found this solution following the link that was given as part of the error message: About Execution Policies
Make sure to run set-ExecutionPolicy default
once you're done, or you will be exposed to security risks.
Using cmd (BAT) file:
@echo off
color 1F
echo.
C:\Windows\system32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\powershell.exe -ExecutionPolicy Bypass -File "PrepareEnvironment.ps1"
:EOF
echo Waiting seconds
timeout /t 10 /nobreak > NUL
If you need run as administrator:
- Make a shortcut pointed to the command prompt (I named it Administrative Command Prompt)
- Open the shortcut's properties and go to the Compatibility tab
- Under the Privilege Level section, make sure the checkbox next to "Run this program as an administrator" is checked
An easy way is to use PowerShell ISE, open script, run and invoke your script, function...
In case you want to run a PowerShell script with Windows Task Scheduler, please follow the steps below:
Create a task
Set
Program/Script
toPowershell.exe
Set
Arguments
to-File "C:\xxx.ps1"
It's from another answer, How do I execute a PowerShell script automatically using Windows task scheduler?.
If your script is named with the .ps1
extension and you're in a PowerShell window, you just run ./myscript.ps1
(assuming the file is in your working directory).
This is true for me anyway on Windows 10 with PowerShell version 5.1 anyway, and I don't think I've done anything to make it possible.
Give the path of the script, that is, path setting by cmd:
$> . c:\program file\prog.ps1
Run the entry point function of PowerShell:
For example,
$> add or entry_func or main
You can run from cmd like this:
type "script_path" | powershell.exe -c -
Use the -File
parameter in front of the filename. The quotes make PowerShell think it is a string of commands.
I've just found the method what Microsoft do when we right click on a ps1
script and click on "Run with PowerShell" :
"C:\Windows\System32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\powershell.exe" "-Command" "if((Get-ExecutionPolicy ) -ne 'AllSigned') { Set-ExecutionPolicy -Scope Process Bypass }; & 'C:\Users\USERNAME\Desktop\MYSCRIPT.ps1'"
With the appropriate execution policy, you should just be able to call the file directly and Windows will associate it with PowerShell
C:\my_path\yada_yada\run_import_script.ps1
That does not do so well with arguments. The real answer to your question is that you are missing the &
to say "execute this"
powershell.exe '& C:\my_path\yada_yada\run_import_script.ps1'
