PowerShell - Modules and Script Organization

Which parameter of Install-Module allows you to install a module for the current user only, without requiring administrator rights?

A-Repository PSGallery

B-Force

C-AllowClobber

D-Scope CurrentUser

Step-by-Step Solution

Solution:

Step 1: Identify parameter for user scope
The -Scope CurrentUser parameter installs the module only for the current user, avoiding admin rights.
Step 2: Review other parameters
-Force forces install, -AllowClobber overwrites commands, and -Repository specifies source; none control user scope.
Final Answer:
-Scope CurrentUser -> Option D
Quick Check:
User-only install = -Scope CurrentUser [OK]

Quick Trick: Use -Scope CurrentUser to avoid admin rights during install [OK]
