Windows 10: PowerShell Bitlocker command uses unaproved verbs and verbosity setting

If I have this statement at the start of a script:


#requires -Version 3.0 -Modules BitLocker, Hyper-V, Storage


I see this message when I run the script:


WARNING: The names of some imported commands from the module 'BitLocker' include unapproved verbs that might make them
less discoverable. To find the commands with unapproved verbs, run the Import-Module command again with the Verbose
parameter. For a list of approved verbs, type Get-Verb.


I also find that if I want to use:


Write-Verbose


Statements to debug the script if:


$VerbosePreference = 'Continue'


The BitLocker CmdLets hang and do not appear complete.


If I set:


$VerbosePreference = 'SilentlyContinue'


Everything works as expected.


I am running the script as a normal user with an elevated PowerShell process doing the work using a named pipe for communication.


Any thoughts?
