Summary
I tried running the Set-ProcessMitigation cmdlet on several Windows Server 2016 hosts and it would not be detecte as a valid cmdlet. After some research I couldn't find a way on how to install/import it either. Thus I was wondering whether this is some issue from my end or a bug in the documentation?
If the documentation is correct I would be interested on how it is possible get that cmdlet working and if there are any registry keys that could potentially block this cmdlet from being executed?
Thanks very much in advance!
