PowerShell module to help you auto-load all SharePoint 2019 cmdlets.

The challenge we face with an out of the box SharePoint Server installation is that the SharePoint Management Shell is using a PSSnappin in the background. And PSSnappins do not support PowerShell's module autoloading capabilities.

So we have two options, the first is if use SharePoint Management Shell, and the second is if we make sure that we run the following command: Add-PSSnapin Microsoft.SharePoint.PowerShell before we try to execute any of the SharePoint related cmdlets.

Or third, we can install the SharePoint2019Commands module from the PowerSHell Gallery and get module autoloading for SharePoint.

We can install SharePoint2019Commands in two scopes: user level, or machine level.

To install on the user level execute this line: Install-Module SharePoint2019Commands -Scope CurrentUser

To install on the machine level, start the regular Windows PowerShell as Administrator and execute this line: Install-Module SharePoint2019Commands
