PowerUp gives a lot of errors

[PenTestical]

Hi,

I'm using Kali 2019.3 (VMware Workstation Player 15) and tried to use PowerUp inside a meterpreter shell. After starting a powershell, I entered the following command

meterpreter > powershell_shell PS > . .\PowerUp.ps1 ERROR: At C:\Users\bill\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Startup\PowerUp.ps1:146 char:19 ERROR: + Sign&nbsp;up ERROR: + ~ ERROR: The ampersand (&) character is not allowed.
