I'm trying to install the active directory module of powershell on windows 10, through this group of commands provided by technet, but I still cannot succeed, I've tried many times and also running the powershell as administrator but the problem remains, it looks like it gets stuck inside a loop printing: '.' I downloaded the code from this link (It comes in a .txt file)
Also I'm attaching the code itself and a screenshot of my result after executing the code.
Basically the code provided creates a function called Install-ADModule and then invokes it:
Result after executing the function created:

The easiest way is to install Windows 10 RSAT (Remote Server Administration Tools) package since it comes with the Active Directory Module with plenty cmdlets for you to manage AD users and computers. The RSAT tools for the release build of Windows 10 aren't out yet. It's expected sometime this month, alongside Tech Preview 3 of Server 2016. Once it's out, install and enable as you normally would. For now, you could always spin up a Windows 8 VM (using the included Hyper-V feature?) and import a remote PowerShell session from that.
Note: The version of windows I have is: Windows 10 Home 64-bit (10.0, Build 17134)
I hope you guys could help me with this.Greetings!

RSAT is not available on the ‘home’ versions of windows. I ran into a similar issue with hyper-v on windows 10 home, but it worked just fine after upgrading to windows 10 pro for a fee.
