- Powershell Into Batchfile!
The PS2BAT module provides a cmdlet called Convert-PSToBAT
, allowing users to convert PowerShell scripts (*.ps1
files) into batch files (*.bat
files). This can be useful for scenarios where running PowerShell scripts might be restricted, and a batch file serves as a workaround.
Install-Module -Name PS2BAT
Make sure to run Powershell as administrator.
If you don't want to install the module, you can try the direct import method (See below).
Import-Module -Name PS2BAT -Force
Convert-PSToBAT -Path "POWERSHELL_FILE_PATH"
-Path
: Specifies the path to the PowerShell script file you want to convert.
Only for Windows PowerShell. Not for PowerShell 7.
Import-Module -Name 'C:\Program Files\WindowsPowerShell\Modules\PS2BAT\1.0.0\PS2BAT.psm1' -Force
Convert-PSToBAT -Path "PATH_TO_PS1_FILE"
- Works with all versions of Powershell
- No need to install the module
- Make sure your Execution Policy is compatible.
- Open PowerShell in the folder of the module.
- Then execute this:
Import-Module -Name .\PS2BAT.psm1
Convert-PSToBAT -Path "PATH_TO_PS1_FILE"
Users can use alternative import methods if they encounter issues with the standard module import. Make sure to provide the correct path to the PS2BAT.psm1
file and the PowerShell script file you want to convert.
