Last time I checked, doing new ActiveXObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject") did not require any extra 'permissions'.


I remembered the problem, it was the execution of unsigned/remotely signed powershell scripts where you have to open powershell and give a permission[1] by typing something like:

  Set-ExecutionPolicy -ExecutionPolicy RemoteSigned
