How to disable the warning about unapproved verbs when importing modules?

Question

When importing a module with Import-Module I get the following warning:

WARNING: Some imported command names include unapproved verbs which might make them less discoverable. Use the Verbose parameter for more detail or type Get-Verb to see the list of approved verbs.

How can I disable it?

Answer 1

Use -DisableNameChecking as in

Import-Module -DisableNameChecking

Quoting the Import-Module documentation:

-DisableNameChecking

Indicates that this cmdlet suppresses the message that warns you when you import a cmdlet or function whose name includes an unapproved verb or a prohibited character.

By default, when a module that you import exports cmdlets or functions that have unapproved verbs in their names, PowerShell displays the following warning message:

"WARNING: Some imported command names include unapproved verbs which might make them less discoverable. Use the Verbose parameter for more detail or type Get-Verb to see the list of approved verbs."

This message is only a warning. The complete module is still imported, including the non-conforming commands. Although the message is displayed to module users, the naming problem should be fixed by the module author.
