Get-Help Set-Executionpolicy

NAME
    Set-ExecutionPolicy

SYNOPSIS
    Changes the user preference for the Windows PowerShell execution policy.


SYNTAX
    Set-ExecutionPolicy [-ExecutionPolicy] {Unrestricted | RemoteSigned | AllSigned | Restricted | Default | Bypass | Undefined} [[-Scope] {Process | CurrentUs
    er | LocalMachine | UserPolicy | MachinePolicy}] [-Force] [-Confirm] [-WhatIf] [<CommonParameters>]


DESCRIPTION
    The Set-ExecutionPolicy changes the user preference for the Windows PowerShell execution policy.

    To run this command on Windows Vista, Windows Server 2008, and later versions of Windows, you must start Windows PowerShell with the "Run as administrator"
     option, even if you are a member of the Administrators group on the computer.

    The execution policy is part of the security strategy of Windows PowerShell. It determines whether you can load configuration files (including your Windows
     PowerShell profile) and run scripts, and it determines which scripts, if any, must be digitally signed before they will run.
