Visual Studio PSSecurityException Unauthorized Access

So, if you're getting the ".. scripts are disabled..." message and then go into the Powershell GUI and run the Get-ExecutionPolicy to find that scripts are Unrestricted, don't be frustrated and confused (like I was).

Run the following statement from a Command prompt (not a PS prompt): 

Open the command line as Administrator

c:\windows\syswow64\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\powershell.exe -command set-executionpolicy unrestricted

Note: you may have to tweak the filepath if you're on a 32-bit system.
