## "scripts is disabled on this system" on Windows

Based on [this issue](https://github.com/remy/nodemon/issues/1619), if you see the following on Windows:

```
PS> nodemon app.js
nodemon : File C:\…\nodemon.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.
At line:1 char:1
CategoryInfo : SecurityError: (:) [], PSSecurityException
FullyQualifiedErrorId : UnauthorizedAccess
```

The solution is as follows by [Felipe Jacob](https://github.com/adelbs):

It's a security restriction of the Windows PowerShell.

1. Open up a powershell command window (open it as administrator)
2. To check out current restrictions type "Get-ExecutionPolicy"
3. Enable powershell by typing "Set-ExecutionPolicy remotesigned"
