Try running from a different command line or terminal that might be allowed to do this. try nodejs command line if you have.

thnx for the help, Nodejs command line worked. But i still cant use mix deps.get in my vscode terminal.. and im not sure how i can use elixir without it

In the error message you posted, there is a link to a MicroSoft support page. On that page is explained how you can set up PowerShell to run the script.
Alternatively you can use the
cmd.exeterminal instead of PowerShell, as some upstream system administrator might not allow you to change PowerShells script policy.ariandanim
in your terminal vs code just type like this
Set-ExecutionPolicy -Scope Process -ExecutionPolicy Bypass
its work for me
