Anyone please help on below.
Trying to encrypt a string using a key. While generating encrypted value, receiving below error. Where as am able to do the same on another server without any issue.
Compared on Powershell version and found both servers have identical versions. Any hints?
$Key = (1..16)
$SecureString = ConvertTo-SecureString -String "mypw" -AsPlainText -Force
ConvertFrom-SecureString -SecureString $SecureString -Key $Key
Receiving Below Exception:
