powershell: Execute a specific script.
$ powershell -File ${path-to-script-ps1}
try on your machine

This command is used to execute a PowerShell script file (.ps1) in Windows using the PowerShell command-line interface (CLI). Here's a breakdown of the command:

  • powershell: This is the command that launches the PowerShell CLI.
  • -File: This is an argument that specifies that the following parameter is the path to the script file that needs to be executed.
  • ${path-to-script-ps1}: This is a placeholder indicating the actual file path of the PowerShell script you want to run. You need to replace ${path-to-script-ps1} with the actual path to your script.

To use this command, you'll need to provide the correct path to your specific PowerShell script. Once you replace ${path-to-script-ps1} with the actual path to your script, the PowerShell CLI will execute the script file and perform the actions defined within it.
