I am unable to enable the optional feature IIS-ASPNET and IIS-ManagementConsole. I keep getting the below error
Enable-WindowsOptionalFeature : One or several parent features are disabled so current feature can not be enabled.

What are the parent features of iis-aspnet and IIS-ManagementConsole that need to be enabled?
You need to pass the -All parameter to Enable-WindowsOptionalFeatures which installs the required parent features:
Enable-WindowsOptionalFeature -Online -FeatureName IIS-ASPNET, IIS-ManagementConsole -All
To enable asp.net you also need to install the .net extensibility feature. you could try below PowerShell command:
Enable-WindowsOptionalFeature -Online -FeatureName IIS-NetFxExtensibility, IIS-NetFxExtensibility45,IIS-ASPNET, IIS-ASPNET45
To enable ManagementConsole you could use below command:
Enable-WindowsOptionalFeature -Online -FeatureName IIS-ManagementConsole

Please try the below, sometimes there's no XML document to update.

According to this link
Apparently a problem at Microsoft's end it always happens since sometimes there's no XML document to update, so for the time being use this command:

We have a legacy windows project, that we would like to containerize.
This uses MSMQ multicasting (part of Telerik's obsolete ORM).
Inside my Windows Container, If I attempt
Enable-WindowsOptionalFeature -Oneline -FeatureName MSMQ-Multicast -All
This fails:
Enable-WindowsOptionalFeature : One or several parent features are disabled so current feature can not be enabled.

Also:
PS C:\scripts> netcfg -c p -i ms_rmcast
Trying to install ms_rmcast ...
... failed. Error code: 0x800106d9.
The container is connected via a 'transparent' network type, so is bridged to the local network.
Is there any solution to this, or is this just not (yet) supported?
Is version 1809 likely to help?
Any other clever ideas?
MSMQ was added in 1803 SAC channel. It does not exist in LTSC channel.

What am i doing wrong here? Sure something is wrong?
Try to add option -All at the end. The All parameter enables all parent features of the specified feature before enabling the specified feature. The parent feature will be enabled with default values
Enable-WindowsOptionalFeature -Online -FeatureName IIS-ASPNET45 -All
Also please refer
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/powershell/module/dism/enable-windowsoptionalfeature?view=win10-ps
I just had the same problem, and found that I had to install IIS-ISAPIExtensions and IIS-ISAPIFilter before installing IIS-ASPNET45. In other words:
...
Enable-WindowsOptionalFeature -Online -FeatureName IIS-ISAPIExtensions
Enable-WindowsOptionalFeature -Online -FeatureName IIS-ISAPIFilter
Enable-WindowsOptionalFeature -Online -FeatureName IIS-ASPNET45
...
I don't know of any easy way to find the parent feature of another feature. It would have been nice if it was a property on the objects returned from Get-WindowsOptionalFeature
You will get it done by adding below in your script
Enable-WindowsOptionalFeature -online -FeatureName NetFx4Extended-ASPNET45
I had same issue like this previously. I solved it by simply by running PowerShell as Administrator. Even after running from elevated PowerShell,if it still throw an error then please try this
Install-WindowsFeature -name Web-Server -IncludeManagementTools
Make sure you run this script from an Admin Prompt!
Make sure Powershell Execution Policy is bypassed to run these scripts:
YOU MAY HAVE TO RUN THIS COMMAND PRIOR TO RUNNING THIS SCRIPT
Set-ExecutionPolicy Bypass -Scope Process
After installing the 7zip4PowerShell module, if I call Get-Help on any of its cmdlets, I get the message
Get-Help cannot find the Help files for this cmdlet on this computer. It is displaying only partial help.
-- To download and install Help files for the module that includes this cmdlet, use Update-Help.
If I call update-help by itself, it doesn't change anything.
If I call update-help -Module 7zip4PowerShell, I get the following:
PS C:\windows\system32> update-help -Module 7zip4PowerShell
update-help : Failed to update Help for the module(s) :
'7Zip4Powershell'

What am I doing wrong?
I have a script that starts new HyperV VM's on a remote server using powershell
New-VM
Get-VM
I want to run this script on my desktop, however I get the following error.
the term 'new-vm' is not recognized as the name of a cmdlet
I can't figure out how to install the new-vm cmdlet on my workstation
Get-WindowsFeature
the target of the specified cmdlet cannot be a windows client-based operating system
Install-windowsFeature hyperv-
the target of the specified cmdlet cannot be a windows client-based operating system
I am very new to powershell, and don't do much with windows.
How can I install the cmdlet New-VM on a Windows 8 machine?
Update
Also tried the following.
Enable-WindowsOptionalFeature -Online -FeatureName Hyper-V-Tools
Enable-WindowsOptionalFeature -Online -FeatureName Hyper-V-PowerShell
I see hyperv tools in the following command
Get-WindowsOptionalFeature -Online | sort state
Microsoft-Hyper-V
Microsoft-Hyper-V-Tools-All
Microsoft-Hyper-V-Management-Powershell
Update 2
I almost got it installed, but it gives this error:
PS C:\Windows\system32> Enable-WindowsOptionalFeature -online -FeatureName Microsoft-Hyper-V-Management-Powershell
Enable-WindowsOptionalFeature : One or several parent features are disabled so current feature can not be enabled.

PS C:\Windows\system32>
Got it installed. The powershell cmdlet has parents that can be installed by adding -all.
Enable-WindowsOptionalFeature -online -FeatureName Microsoft-Hyper-V-Management-Powershell -all
You will need to reboot before the cmdlet is available.
