Answer 1

Thanks for this thread it was helpfull….

But i actually rewrote the function.

Be aware, that nether the original function in this post or this rewritten function includes module manifest data. So you cant rely on version checks on the module.

function Import-ModuleRemotely {
    Param (
        [string] $moduleName,
        [System.Management.Automation.Runspaces.PSSession] $session
    )

    Import-Module $moduleName

    $Script = @"
    if (get-module $moduleName)
    {
        remove-module $moduleName;
    }

    New-Module -Name $moduleName { $($(Get-Module $moduleName).Definition) } | Import-Module
"@

    Invoke-Command -Session $Session -ScriptBlock {
        Param($Script)
        . ([ScriptBlock]::Create($Script))
        Get-Module 
    } -ArgumentList $Script
}
