I am trying to instantiate an object in Powershell for Windows RT, but keep getting the following error. PS > $foo = New-Object System.Security.Cryptography.SHA1Managed New-Object : Cannot create type. Only core types are supported in this language mode. At line:1 char:8 + $foo = New-Object System.Security.Cryptography.SHA1Managed + ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ + CategoryInfo : PermissionDenied: (:) [New-Object], PSNotSupportedException + FullyQualifiedErrorId : CannotCreateTypeConstrainedLanguage,Microsoft.PowerShell.Commands.NewObjectCommand I just spent the last thirty minutes engaged in some pretty heavy Google-fu and was unable to find anything even close to a similar problem, let alone an answer. My hope is that I just need to configure something; my fear is that Windows RT ships with a crippled version of Powershell. Does anyone know which case it is?
