how to put a powershell script inside a batch file
Hi All
I am trying to include the following into a batch file that i have that maps some drives
i have added the below to my smb.ps1
Enable-WindowsOptionalFeat
In my batch file
powershell.exe -ExecutionPolicy Bypass -File "D:\scripts\smb.ps1"
Also note the smb script works if i test it alone
I get the error below when i execute. i have allowed allow local and remote signed scripts on dc and this is happening via GPO
"The argument 'D:\scripts\smb.ps1' to the -File parameter does not exist. Provide the path to an existing '.ps1' file as an argument to the -File parameter."

did you copy "D:\Scripts\smb.ps1" to every computer?
if not, this is exactly the error I would expect.

Hi David

don't put it in a user logon script but a computer logon script where it will run as system.

HI David just tried that. the group policy is updated but the feature is not installed
ASKER
thanks David it seemed like it worked. I didnt have the computer name in the same ou that i was applying it to
you have to shutdown and restart one more time
ASKER
ok it didnt seem to install it
Mapping drives from the batch file, then running powershell from within it seems convoluted. Why not just put the entire thing in Powershell? You can map drives Via GPO too.
