Need help with powershell scripting

Hi SLoventhal,

you can try the following options:

1. Run PowerShell as Administrator:
   Ensure that the path to your PowerShell script (e.g., D:\Monday.ps1) is accurate. Use a command like the one below, adjusting the script path:

    

PowerShell -NoProfile -ExecutionPolicy Bypass -Command "& {Start-Process PowerShell -ArgumentList '-NoProfile -ExecutionPolicy Bypass -File \"<Your-Script-Path>\"' -Verb RunAs}"

• Sending Email via Gmail:
  For sending emails via Gmail, secure connections and proper authentication are necessary. Here's a changed script:

   

$EmailFrom = "email address removed for privacy reasons" 
$EmailTo = "email address removed for privacy reasons" 
$Subject = "Email subject" 
$Body = "Email body" 
$SMTPServer = "smtp.gmail.com" 
$SMTPClient = New-Object Net.Mail.SmtpClient($SmtpServer, 587) 
$SMTPClient.EnableSsl = $true 
$SMTPClient.Credentials = New-Object 
System.Net.NetworkCredential("username", "password"); 
$SMTPClient.Send($EmailFrom, $EmailTo, $Subject, $Body)

Replace "username" and "password" with your Gmail credentials.

Note: If you have 2-step verification enabled on your Gmail account, you’ll need to generate and use an app password (https://support.google.com/accounts/answer/185833?hl=en). Also, you might need to allow less secure apps to access your Gmail account (https://support.google.com/accounts/answer/6010255?hl=en).
