Answer 1

As mentioned above, Windows PowerShell was designed with security and reliability in mind. The main security component of Windows PowerShell is its execution policy. By default, this policy is set to Restricted. You can verify this with the Get-ExecutionPolicy cmdlet. Scripts are not executed in Restricted mode. Dot. Because this is the default mode, Windows PowerShell cannot be used to run predefined scripts.
...
In addition, Windows PowerShell cannot execute scripts from the current directory. You must specify a path. This was done to prevent command substitution.
....
However, because Windows PowerShell doesn't support running scripts from the current folder, this error is ruled out. If you really want to run the script from the current folder, you just need to specify the path, such as .\myscript . An explicit reference to the current folder allows you to confirm that you want to run a script and not a shell command.
