Workaround: Use string formatting operator

When I try to import 'import-WinModule' I get access denied. "cannot validate argument on parameter 'session'. @kborowinski were you able to get past this and if so, how?

@jdogg89: I was using an elevated Powershell 6.1.0 console on Windows 7 to import ActiveDirectory module.

The script block gets evaluated in the remote scope which will not have your local scope variables in it. I would highly recommend using string evaluated in the local scope for -Filter for a multitude of reasons beyond compatibility with this module.

Try

Get-AdComputer -Filter "Name -like 'PS*' -and LastLogonTimeStamp -lt '$time'"
