It needs to be said that the Constrained Language will have a large impact on your system ability to run legitimate powershell scripts. I really don't advise this option at all. You should only do this on dedicated computer systems where you know Powershell is not being used as a means to install or manage software or the system itself. This option will otherwise break tools like Chocolatey, the SQL Server installation process, and a lot more. Don't do this on your daily usage computer. There is a lot of Windows software out there that relies on Powershell features for its own maintenance or installation processes.

This is one of the best examples of why Win11 was a cash grab. They made such big talk about finally breaking backwards compatibility for the sake of security, but left so many gaping security holes because they didn’t want to break backwards compatibility. CMD should be gone, it hasn’t been updated in, let me check, 23 years. PS2 should be gone, heck, even the default PS5 should be gone. There’s still ancient services that still exist for archaic programs that can be exploited.

Method 2, Microsoft's comment: "As part of the implementation of Constrained Language, PowerShell included an environment variable for debugging and unit testing called __PSLockdownPolicy. While we have never documented this, some have discovered it and described this as an enforcement mechanism. This is unwise because an attacker can easily change the environment variable to remove this enforcement. In addition, there are also file naming conventions that enable FullLanguage mode on a script, effectively bypassing Constrained Language."

"You don't have permission..." I created a "New Folder" in my D drive and named it "Policy Definitions", put it into "Windows:\" and it now magically has a grip of files in it. I can do nothing with it including saving anything to it. I also thought I told my pc, when I first built it, to NEVER claim I am not the administrator and to never ask for one. It really sucks that we don't get a save direction. I NEVER put anything I can avoid onto my C drive bc it's only 120 gigs. I now see that there's a ton of stuff that I use that can only be on the C drive. I just want to undo the folder but it tells my I am NOT the admin and it somehow got a grip of files put into it when I moved it from the D drive, where I created it, into the C drive. I'm hyper concerned I just screwed something up and cannot complete the Policy Plus/Definitions step. F me!

​@@themadmallard No. Using even the simplest history keys (eg: up and down) will result in only the commands that you input only in that certain PS session (by that I mean only commands used in that certain window, which will disappear once you close it). Also if you are using `npm` for NodeJs, you'll get error cause using scripts is disabled and/or they are not signed. The `ConstrictedLanguage` will make most Chocolatey scripts also fail due to the fact that you cannot access object members through the `.` notation. If you're a developer and you're using PS as a `terminal` you should stay away from this. The only thing which most likely will have no impact is the `disable PS 2`, all the rest will have an impact on the use of PS as a terminal.

You first bring up a PS window to check the current language status. Later, you use a PS window to check the new language status. If you re-use the original PS window, it reports the *old* language status. If you re-check, I expect that your PC is set to "Constrained Language".

So in Windows you have to make restrictions for possible programs that you don't even have installed on your system? Imagine if Linux allowed a non-privileged script to download it's own sudo version and automatically gave that new version permission to elevate the scripts privileges. It's clear that "Windows" is the perfect name for it, seen as it's so easy to break it and gain access. While other OS'es build strong walls, Microsoft just decorates with thin glass.

It's not at all like sudo. It's more like disabling bash on Linux (for "security" because a lot of malware runs scripts in bash), then being surprised that people can use dash or ksh instead. Powershell is just a convenient interface for running .Net programs without compiling code. Its security boundary is exactly the same as any random exe. Things that require administrator still require administrator. No version of powershell lets you bypass that.

@@letao12 Not quite. If that was the case there would be no need to restrict it. Bash or any other shell has no permissions outside of the user running it. As such you will gain nothing by switching the shell on Linux. Even if you wanted to provide a shell with additional privileges you would still require those privileges first in order to do so. This is not what is said about Windows in this video.

There are like a dozen ways around the execution policy in PowerShell. Setting the policy at the machine level does disable some of them but there are always ways around it. To quote the Microsoft documentation: "The execution policy isn't a security system that restricts user actions. For example, users can easily bypass a policy by typing the script contents at the command line when they cannot run a script. Instead, the execution policy helps users to set basic rules and prevents them from violating them unintentionally." I also wouldn't mess with the constrained language mode honestly. Lots of legitimate installers and updaters use PowerShell and may need access to the APIs and types that are blocked in ConstrainedLanguage mode. By all means remove PS 2.0 if you don't need it (should be disabled by default honestly) but the rest is kind of meh advice. I work in cybersecurity and my global execution policy is set to bypass and my language mode is set to Full. What I have done though is setup multiple layers of PowerShell logging so if PowerShell is abused I will know how.

Btw, the method you showed doesn't really prevent bypassing the execution policy. If a program like policy plus can easily change the execution policy with admin perms, why wouldn't any other program (with admin rights ofcourse) not be able to just turn it off and run the script it wants. Anyways I'm thinking out of the scope here, because if a program is ran with admin perms, it's just gonna do whatever it wants from the exe itself, there's no point in using a powershell script.

What you could theoretically do is have a separate dev account and personal accounts, and set the “CurrentUser” policy instead of MachinePolicy for each.

Important addition: There are a couple of important things to do while you are carrying out these simple operations: 1. Be sure you are facing East 2. Wear your best Wizard Robe, and ensure that you have your tungsten wand close at hand. 3. Hum the Microsoft Loyalty Song quietly throughout the process.

Wada PITA ! ! The PowerShell Core maneuver just sent me over the edge with frustration. It sucks so much we have to deal with this BS & Microsoft couldn't have baked-in a patch to respect existing Policys. I used to love anything IT & now 20% + of time is either implementing changes like this or chasing the next great preventative measure & by the time I'm done the luster has faded from the heart of a project. BTW - Nice job & always a thorough & high quality video...

Thank you so much. I am very paranoid, so I only try to visit websites I know. I use ad and cookie blockers, and I also employ one of the best total security applications, along with second opinion scanners. I don't download anything I don't know about. I never use pirated software or games, except for movies that I download sometimes to watch. I am very paranoid because everything on my computer, including my passwords, address, bank card details, and important documents, is crucial to me. I find this channel very helpful. Thanks, man, for your work, and please continue doing what you do.

Thanks - found this very useful. For anyone that uses Norton however, and specifically Norton VPN on Windows 11, from what I can tell, the 3rd step seemed to cause my system to become unstable. Windows crashed 3 times. So I reset the script to not configured. So far, it's back to being stable. I think there's some Norton VPN conflict going on, but not sure if it's a Norton/Chrome issue or just a Norton issue. Grief.
