Import-Module : The specified module 'activedirectory' was not loaded because no valid module file was found in any module directory

问题

I am having trouble doing an import-module ActiveDirectory on a Server 2008 SP2 (64 bit).

NET Framework 3.5 SP1 is installed
I download the Windows6.0-KB968934-x86.msu (for ADWS)
This file did not install saying that "The update does not apply to my system"
Doing some research (http://anti-american.rssing.com/chan-2091246/all_p15.html) I installed hotfix in KB article 969166 and the above update installed.
After a reboot, I noticed that in services, Active Directory Web Services is running
I opened an administrative PS prompt and performed an Import-Module ActiveDirectory, but...

...I get:

Import-Module : The specified module 'activedirectory' was not loaded because no valid     module file was found in any module directory.
At line:1 char:14
+ import-module <<<<  activedirectory
    + CategoryInfo          : ResourceUnavailable: (activedirectory:String) [Import-    Module], FileNotFoundException
    + FullyQualifiedErrorId : Modules_ModuleNotFound,Microsoft.PowerShell.Commands.ImportModuleCommand

If its any help, here's some info in PSModule Path, modules and the version:

PS C:\Windows\system32> $env:PSModulePath
C:\Users\ischmd\Documents\WindowsPowerShell\Modules;C:\Windows\system32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\Modules\

PS C:\Windows\system32> Get-Module -ListAvailable

Manifest   BitsTransfer              {}
Manifest   PSDiagnostics             {}

PS C:\Windows\system32> $PSVersionTable.psversion

PS C:\Windows\system32> $host.version

Major  Minor  Build  Revision
-----  -----  -----  --------
2      0      -1     -1

Any help is greatly appreciated. The main purpose of this is to GET-AdUser command to automate some process but at this point, were stumped. My only conclusion is that this is not possible with Windows 2008 SP2...

AD Powershell module should be listed under installed Features. See image:

For non-servers this requires Remote Server Administration Tools for Windows __

You can install the Active Directory snap-in with Powershell on Windows Server 2012 using the following command:

Install-windowsfeature -name AD-Domain-Services –IncludeManagementTools

This helped me when I had problems with the Features screen due to AppFabric and Windows Update errors.

The ActiveDirectory module for powershell can be installed by adding the RSAT-AD-Powershell feature.

In an elevated powershell window:

Add-WindowsFeature RSAT-AD-PowerShell

Enable-WindowsOptionalFeature -FeatureName ActiveDirectory-Powershell -Online -All

回答5:

Even better use implicit remoting to use a module from another Machine!

$s = New-PSSession Server-Name
Invoke-Command -Session $s -ScriptBlock {Import-Module ActiveDirectory}
Import-PSSession -Session $s -Module ActiveDirectory -Prefix REM

This will allow you to use the module off a remote PC for as long as the PSSession is connected.

This may be an old post, but if anyone is still facing this issue after trying all the above mentioned steps, ensure whether the default path of PowerShell module is specified under the "PSModulePath" environment variable.

The default path should be "%SystemRoot%\system32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\Modules\"
