Unable to execute PowerShell Script

Question

How can I get my PowerShell script to execute?

When I run my script I get the error:
File cannot be loaded because the execution of scripts is disabled on this system

Can you help me to get my script to run?

set-executionpolicy unrestricted
#Set-ExecutionPolicy RemoteSigned

$target=[IO.File]::ReadAllText(".\usermenuTest1.4d")
$output=[IO.File]::ReadAllText(".\usermenuTest2.4d")

($output -replace $target) | Set-Content "usermenuTest2.4d.new"

Start-Sleep -s 10

This Technet article suggests trying Get-ExecutionPolicy to check your script execution policy, and then set it to AllSigned or Unrestricted . Also, make sure you run the script like this ".\\scriptname.ps1"
