on Oct 20, 2025 Can you please share the script where you are attempting to set the variables and import the module within the scope of the script?

on Oct 20, 2025 As shown in the screenshots, the variable has the required value since it is set before it is displayed.

Describe the bug
import-module microsoft.graphwith$MaximumFunctionCount = 32768fails in PowerShell 5.1 when the variable is set in the script, but works fine if it is done on the command line.Script display unfortunately with error messages in Norwegian. But you get the drift.
BTW. I know this works fine in PowerShell 7.x, but those who run this might not have that installed.
Expected behavior
That import-module works the same whether it is a script or on command line in PowerShell 5.1.
How to reproduce
Run script or copy commands from script to command line.
