Run powershell from ToolBox

jhardwick 6 years ago updated by H Nielsen 4 months ago 3

Microsoft at some point changed the default action for powershell PS1 files to be to open in Notepad instead of running them for security reasons.  That means I can't just launch a powershell script to fix an issue from the toolbox though.


I'd like to be able to have them run from the toolbox when connected to a machine... perhaps we do a custom extension of script.ps1.exec or something. 


As it is powershell scripts in the toolbox don't really provide any value.

So, I see that this was changed from "Under Review" to "Completed" over 3 years ago, but as far as I can tell this is still not possible. ps1 scripts just open in notepad when ran from the toolbox, and do not actually execute. And I can't find any mention of running ps1 scripts in the toolbox in the documentation. Has this feature been added or not?
