I need to install Bitlocker related module on various machines in my environment. I can't install it one by one manually. I need to automate the installation. Can someone point me in the right direction and provide me pointers.
I can't find any previous questions on this. I saw below question but we don't have NuGet on all the machines. Use nuget to install PowerShell modules at user machine
You can leverage PowerShell Gallery features for this.
Pre-Requisite: Ensure that you have the PowerShellGet module. This module comes witht he Windows Management Framework (WMF) 5.0 or you can use an MSI based installer and include this in PowerShell 3 and 4. You can push this via SCCM if it is not there already.
Required Cmdlets: Use below cmdlet to perform required operations. You can use these cmdlets in a script and run that against multiple computers in your environment.
#Check if module exists using Find-Module cmdlet
Find-Module xBitlocker
#Install the module using the Install-Module cmdlet
Install-Module -Name xBitlocker -Force
#Check module is on current machine already using below cmdlet
Get-Module -Name xBitlocker
#Save the module on local machine without installing
Save-Module -Name xBitlocker -Path <path here>
#Install the module using the below cmdlet
Uninstall-Module -Name xBitlocker -Force
You can use these cmdlets and create script to run against multiple machines.
You can change xBitlocker with another module name as well.
