How to Run loadGAC.ps1 in PowerShell (PowerShell 2.0 DLC Setup)


📌 Overview

This article explains how to properly execute the loadGAC.ps1 script after downloading and extracting the ps2DLC.zip file.

❗ Common Error:
“The term 'run' is not recognized as the name of a cmdlet…”

Cause: run is not a valid PowerShell command.

📥 Step 1: Download the File

  • Download ps2DLC.zip from the provided source.

📂 Step 2: Extract the ZIP File

  • Right-click on ps2DLC.zip
  • Select Extract All
  • Choose a folder (Example: C:\ps2DLC)

🛡 Step 3: Open PowerShell as Administrator

  • Click Start
  • Search for PowerShell
  • Right-click → Select Run as Administrator

📁 Step 4: Navigate to the Extracted Folder

Run the following command:

cd C:\ps2DLC

Verify the script exists:

dir

You should see:

loadGAC.ps1

🔐 Step 5: Enable Script Execution (If Required)

If scripts are blocked, run:

Set-ExecutionPolicy RemoteSigned

Press Y and hit Enter.

Recommended (Temporary Bypass for Single Session):

Set-ExecutionPolicy Bypass -Scope Process

▶ Step 6: Run the Script (Correct Command)

Incorrect:

run .\loadGAC.ps1

Correct:

.\loadGAC.ps1

🚨 Common Issues & Solutions

Running scripts is disabled
Solution:
Set-ExecutionPolicy Bypass -Scope Process
Script not found
Ensure you are in the correct directory:
cd C:\ps2DLC
Access Denied
Open PowerShell in Administrator mode.

✅ Expected Result

After running:
.\loadGAC.ps1
The required assemblies will load successfully without command errors.

Important: PowerShell does not use the run command. Always execute scripts using .\scriptname.ps1.
