Allowing execution of PowerShell scripts

If you see an error similar to this:

list.ps1 cannot be loaded because running scripts is disabled
on this system. For more information, see about_Execution_Policies at https:/go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkID=135170

Then you need to adjust the security settings on your machine, to be able to execute PowerShell scripts.

To simply allow the current user to execute ANY local PowerShell script, execute the following PowerShell code:

Set-ExecutionPolicy -ExecutionPolicy Unrestricted -Scope CurrentUser
