Cannot load PSReadline module. Console is running without PSReadline.

Every time I open powershell I get this error: Cannot load PSReadline module. Console is running without PSReadline. I added an alias to a profile.ps1 file in my user documents folder. (I have since removed it.) I think I started seeing the error after I opened powershell in VSCode the first time after adding the alias. (It asked a question about powershell when I opened it.) But now, all the powershell windows I open give this error. I have tried lots of policy execution changes and trying to install / remove PSReadline but nothing seems to work. I cannot get this error to leave me alone.

I had to use:

Set-ExecutionPolicy RemoteSigned
Import-Module PSReadline

hi all ,

I had meet same error as @garfieldbanks showd above , and try every suggestions list above .

The error still exists. I could provice some clue which caused to trigger this error .

I installed powershell extension into Visual Studio Code . The vs code powershell console show me below command today :

File D:\apps\powershell\7\Modules\PSReadline\PSReadLine.format.ps1xml is published by CN=Microsoft Corporation, O=Microsoft Corporation, L=Redmond, S=Washington, C=US and is not trusted on your system. Only run scripts from trusted publishers. [V] Never run [D] Do not run [R] Run once [A] Always run [?] Help(default is “D”): V

I comfirmed the question by input V , which means [V] Never run .

After this moment , each time when I open Windows Terminal , there are always show the message " Cannot load PSReadline module. Console is running without PSReadline. " , even if set the environment policy to Unrestricted .

At current situation , the only way I can load the PSReadline into console is by run command each time when I open console :

Import-Module ‘C:\Program Files\WindowsPowerShell\Modules\PSReadline\2.0.0\PSReadline.psd1’

when the current cosole closed , PSReadline module gone too .
