[Discuss-gnuradio] Installing GNUradio from source on Windows 7

[Ernie Potenziani]

Any advice will be much appreciated (I'm new to this board so please excuse me if this is not the proper forum to pose this question):

I wonder if anyone can point out what I may be doing wrong to get this error while installing GNUradio from source on a Windows 7 machine (I am using an Ettus x310 and the binary version of GNUradio gives an error with the FPGA builds, so I'm trying to build it from the ground up):

I am using the instructions from the web page https://github.com/gnieboer/gnuradio_windows_build_scripts

The error I encounter is when running the install script is:

C:\Users\user\GNURadio_Windows_Build_Scripts>Set-ExecutionPolicy Unrestricted

Thanks in advance for any advice,
