Hello,

I try to import NavAdminTool.ps1 into powersell but I get the following error:

Import-Module : The specified module 'C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Dynamics NAV\110\Service\NavAdminTool.ps1' was not loaded because no valid module file was found i
n any module directory.

Please help me with this issue!

Regards,

Galina

    The folder should C:\Program Files, not C:\Program Files (x86)

    Try this 

    Import-Module "$env:ProgramFiles\Microsoft Dynamics NAV\110\Service\NavAdminTool.ps1"

    Thank you.

    The problem is that I although I enter

    Import-Module "${env:ProgramFiles}\Microsoft Dynamics NAV\110\Service\NavAdminTool.ps1"

    I get the same error:

    Import-Module : The specified module 'C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Dynamics NAV\110\Service\NavAdminTool.ps1' was not loaded because no valid module file was found in any module directory.

    Regards,

    Is NAV Server installed on your machine, only client? if the NAV server is on another machine then you don't have those folders and you get that error.  You need to execute it where the service is installed.

    Hi,

    Firstly you need to check your Execution Policy.

    Also I had noticed that PowerShell modules file extension is .psm1

    Besides what the others have said, can you check the module is not blocked by Windows? Right click it and check it's not blocked.
