MDT 2012 Update 1 on Windows 8.1 Pro

[gr8greet]

Hi All,

 

I am having Windows 8.1 Pro OS running on my laptop. I have installed Windows AIK & MDT 2012 Update 1.

 

But when I launches, MDT workbench, it throws Powershell error.

I checked windows 8.1 is having Powershell V3 by default. I have installed Powershell V2.0 from Add remove programs still workbench fails to expand giving Powershell version error.

 

Any help is appreciated

 

 

Regards:

 

Mandy

Hi,

I haven't tried running MDT 2012 U1 on my Windows 8.1 actually but I would assume that you need to run MDT 2013 to get support for not only deploying Windows 8.1 / Server 2012 r2 but also using MDT.

Jorgen is correct. You need MDT 2013 and the Windows ADK for Windows 8.1 in order to use MDT on a Windows 8.1 or Windows Server 2012 R2 computer.

 

Hope this helps,

I got solution after googling..

Its all about powershell script execution policy which needs to set to unrestricted or bypass

 

Set-ExecutionPolicy to Unrestricted or bypass for current user
