Running Powershell scripts on a new PC

When running Powershell scripts for the first time on a developer PC, you will need to change the execution policy for Powershell.

By default the behaviour only allows signed scripts to run.

Executing

Set-ExecutionPolicy RemoteSigned

will allow locally developed scripts to be executed.
