# Bypass the PowerShell execution policy The PowerShell execution policy can be bypassed on a case-by-case basis using `-ex bypass`; for example: ```powershell powershell -ex bypass -File $FILE.ps1 ``` > [!tip] > The `-ex bypass` flag *isn't* necessary when executing code directly with `-c`. This can also be set temporarily within a shell: ```powershell Set-ExecutionPolicy Bypass -Scope process -Force ``` %% ![[Bypass the PowerShell execution policy - additional information]] %% However, this will not bypass other protections, in particular AMSI!
