Set the font type and size using the command prompt (or batch file) - powershell

Question

I tried the solution given from: Specify the size of command prompt when executing a batch file
I ran:
powershell -command "&{set-executionpolicy remotesigned; Import-Module SetConsoleFont; Get-ConsoleFontInfo | Format-Table -AutoSize}"
But I get these errors, any ideas?
Set-ExecutionPolicy : Access to the registry key 'HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\PowerShell\1\ShellIds\Microsoft.PowerShell' is denied. At line:1 char:22 + &{set-executionpolicy <<<< remotesigned; Import-Module SetConsoleFont; Get-ConsoleFontInfo | Format-Table -AutoSize} + CategoryInfo : NotSpecified: (:) [Set-ExecutionPolicy], UnauthorizedAccessException + FullyQualifiedErrorId : System.UnauthorizedAccessException,Microsoft.PowerShell.Commands.SetExecutionPolicyCommand
Import-Module : The specified module 'SetConsoleFont' was not loaded because no valid module file was found in any module directory . At line:1 char:50 + &{set-executionpolicy remotesigned; Import-Module <<<< SetConsoleFont; Get-ConsoleFontInfo | Format-Table -AutoSize} + CategoryInfo : ResourceUnavailable: (SetConsoleFont:String) [Import-Module], FileNotFoundException + FullyQualifiedErrorId : Modules_ModuleNotFound,Microsoft.PowerShell.Commands.ImportModuleCommand
The term 'Get-ConsoleFontInfo' is not recognized as the name of a cmdlet, function, script file, or operable program. Check the spe lling of the name, or if a path was included, verify that the path is correct and try again.

I have put the file SetConsoleFont.psm1 in
C:\Users\Adrian\Documents\WindowsPowerShell\Modules\SetConsoleFont
You say "You're not allowed to set the execution policy" well maybe I'm not, but it's my machine so why shouldn't I? I don't want to execute these commands as Administrator, just as a user, me (Adrian)
Another comment was to try set-executionpolicy bypass process
so I tried:
powershell -command "&{set-executionpolicy bypass process; set-executionpolicy remotesigned; Import-Module SetConsoleFont; Get-ConsoleFontInfo | Format-Table -AutoSize}"
But got even more red errors.
I have no idea what powershell is or how to use it, I just want to change the font from a batch file without hassle!

Answer 1

Try set-executionpolicy bypass process instead.
Also make sure you have put the module in a module path folder such as:
[yourprofile]\Documents\WindowsPowershell\Modules

Answer 2

I managed to get it working but only in a PowerShell console, and I had to run it as Administrator. However this is not practical for me for the following reasons:
I wish to change the font of new window seamlessly from a batch file, which will be run by users of the software. They may not have Administrator access and so cannot execute "set-executionpolicy remotesigned" which I needed to do to get it working.
Also this has to be done in a DOS batch file, so opening up a powershell window is not an option. It only works in a PowerShell window and not with the DOS "powershell -command" option.
So a partial answer.

Answer 3

If you want to change Execution Policy, it should be done in an elevated prompt.
And loading the module can be done by giving absolute path. Example is below.
Import-Module c:\users\testuser\desktop\SetConsoleFont.psm1 -Verbose
and we can bypass execution policy like below.
powershell.exe -executionpolicy bypass -command "${<your code>}"
Edit: The imported module will be available only in the scope of the script block.
here it is with in {}. So whatever cmdlets and functions in side the module should be executed in sided the scriptblock.
