title: How to activate virtualenv using PowerShell?
body: <p>I made virtualenv called bitcoin_notifications.py and I'm going to activate it but:</p>
  
  <pre><code>PS C:\Users\piotr&gt; bitcoin_notifications\activate.ps1
  </code></pre>
  
  <blockquote>
    <p>bitcoin_notifications\activate.ps1 : <code>The module
    'bitcoin_notifications' could not be loaded. For more information, run
    'Import-Module bitcoin_notifications'.</code> At line:1 char:1
    + bitcoin_notifications\activate.ps1
    + ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
        + CategoryInfo          : ObjectNotFound: (bitcoin_notifications\activate.ps1:String) [],
    CommandNotFoundException
        + FullyQualifiedErrorId : CouldNotAutoLoadModule</p>
  </blockquote>
  
  <p>In the result shared before we read the module could not be loaded and if one wants more info to run another specific command.</p>
  
  <p>Once i run it,</p>
  
  <pre><code>PS C:\Users\piotr&gt; ```Import-Module bitcoin_notifications
  </code></pre>
  
  <blockquote>
    <p>Import-Module : The specified module 'bitcoin_notifications' was not
    loaded because no valid module file was found in any module
    directory.<code>At line:1 char:1
    + Import-Module bitcoin_notifications
    + ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
        + CategoryInfo          : ResourceUnavailable: (bitcoin_notifications:String) [Import-Module], FileNotFoundException
        + FullyQualifiedErrorId :</code>Modules_ModuleNotFound,Microsoft.PowerShell.Commands.ImportModuleCommand```</p>
