Note
As you may have noticed, the feature that TechnoWikis has taught you to disable which is integrated into the Windows 10 features is Windows PowerShell 2.0.

At the moment Windows PowerShell is in version 5.0, version 2.0 has some security flaws which can be used by attackers to compromise the security of the system and commit their actions. This is because being an old version does not have the same levels or security features of the most recent versions, so if we do not use it for what we have to have installed a feature that can put at risk the integrity of the system.

In this way we can remove the Windows PowerShell console from our Windows 10 and then reinstall it normally..
