+                                                                 ~

We are looking for a single line command to do the above operation.

Answer 1

This command syntax is not correct.

Do this is a script and run the script (deliver to users as an exe using the PS2EXE tool), thus no need for a batch file.

# Begin Script
$AddComputerSplat = @{
    DomainName   = <Domain Name> 
    ComputerName = <Old_ComputerName> 
    NewName      = '<New_ComputerName>'
    $credential  = New-Object System.Management.Automation.PSCredential($username = 'Domain\UserID', 
    ($password   = 'Password' | ConvertTo-SecureString -asPlainText -Force))
}
Add-Computer @AddComputerSplat

# End Script

Or if you just want to use cmd.exe and call the consoelhost, then this approach should work for you.

$Command = 'Add-Computer -DomainName <Domain Name> -ComputerName <Old_ComputerName> -NewName <New_ComputerName> -$credential = New-Object System.Management.Automation.PSCredential($username = "<Domain\User ID>", ($password = <Password> | ConvertTo-SecureString -asPlainText -Force))"'
powershell -ArgumentList '-NoExit', 'NoProfile', '-ExecutionPolicy Bypass', "-Command  &{ $ConsoleCommand }"
