    PowerShell scripts not working with Call operator


    Hello

    I have been developing a Powershell script using Powershell ISE, and for the most part i am very happy about it, however i have encountered what i believe to be a bug in the call operator (&).

    When i use the call operator followed by a "pure" string everything works as it should, the command works and ISE runs as usual, but when i use the call operator followed by a variable, the command executes correctly, however ISE will no longer use the intellisense function to automatically show a drop-down list of possible variables when using "$". It is still possible to press ctrl + space to force the drop-down to appear. This error will disappear when you delete the call operator or the variable.

    Here is an eksample:
    (This courses the problem)
    $c = 'C:\Path\To\Script'
    & $c

    (This does not course the problem)
    & 'C:\Path\To\Script'

    I hope someone is able to help me understand what is happening here, and if it is a bug then give me an alternative solution to executing a script on the local PC though a script.


    I use Powershell version 5.1.17763.503

    In post 26 there were steps listed to fix the operating system corruption.
    Are you able to follow them?
    In post 29 was the suggested dism repair command.

    Hi Muhammed DanishM S,

    Thank you for posting your question in the Microsoft Community Forums.

    I would like to let you know that the Windows PowerShell command-line and scripting language can be used to automate many Group Policy tasks, including configuring registry-based policy settings and various Group Policy Management Console (GPMC) tasks.

    Refer to this article to know more.

    For more information, I would suggest you to post your query in
    MSDN Forums
    , where we have developers and support professionals who are well-equipped with the knowledge on PowerShell
    scripts to assist you with your query.
