Hey folks,

I have a system that has not connectivity to most of the internet hence why I can't download PS modules. So, my question is: Can I just copy the "WindowsPowerShell" folder from a computer that with internet connectivity and paste it on my target computer? would that even work?

Thanks,

Hi @Sophs-13

Please note that copying files from one computer to another may not always work as expected due to differences in hardware and software configurations.

To copy the module, first, make sure that PowerShell version 5.1 or newer is installed on the computer with internet access. Then, install the PowerShell module you need using the Install-Module command. Next, download the module to a specified local folder on your computer using the Save-Module command. Finally, copy the folder to another computer you want to install the module on.
