Not able to setup iControlSnapIn

Hi All

I have installed the f5-icontrol-powershell-snapin.zip from

link text

I ran the setupSnapIn.ps1 but got the below error

Registering iControlSnapin.dll on platform ''
.NET v4 present
Microsoft (R) .NET Framework Installation utility Version 4.6.1590.0

The installation failed, and the rollback has been performed.

I am doing this on a WinSevrer2008R2 with PS 5.0

Please let me know what is the issue.

    If you have performed the instructions as suggested in the here: https://guptaashish.com/tag/powershell/

    and if you still find the above error.

    The most likely cause would be the permission to the below registry path to your current account. You will need to provide full control to the registry HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\PowerShell\1\PowerShellSnapIns .

    Upon having full control, then re run the setupSnapIn.ps1 and you should be all set to proceed further.
