'Get-Package' is not working properly when run from a Form application.

It IS working when running the selection from the console.
I also tested this by creating a new form and setting the load event to "Get-Command Get-Package" (The only code in the whole form), and it still throws.

Code: Select all

ERROR: Get-Command : The term 'Get-Package' is not recognized as the name of a cmdlet, function, script file, or operable program. Check the spelling of the name, or
ERROR: if a path was included, verify that the path is correct and try again.
