Installation

Installing a PowerShell module means just copying the files into either

  • C:\Users<username>\Documents\WindowsPowerShell\Modules
  • C:\Program Files\WindowsPowerShell\Modules (available since version 4.0)
  • C:\WINDOWS\system32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\Modules

Just create the folder "NTFSSecurity" in one of the previously mentioned paths and copy the NTFSSecurity files in there.

The standard module folders are in the environment variable 'PSModulePath', which can be accessed through the following PowerShell command: $env:PSModulePath

For example, all the files in the zip file have to be in "C:\Users\raandree\Documents\WindowsPowerShell\Modules\NTFSSecurity". If you did this then the module should be listed in "Get-Module -ListAvailable" and can be imported using "Import-Module NTFSSecurity".
