Is Your Feature Request Related To A Problem? Please describe.

PS C:\Windows\system32> refreshenv
RefreshEnv.cmd does not work when run from this process. If you're in PowerShell, please 'Import-Module $env:ChocolateyInstall\helpers\chocolateyProfile.psm1' and try again.

Describe The Solution. Why is it needed?

refreshenv just works in powershell, executing all steps necessary

Additional Context

There is no reason to tell me to load a module, just do it for me.

This is the expected behaviour for PowerShell modules and so it's not something we'll be looking to add to Chocolatey CLI.

You need to add this to your PowerShell profile. Chocolatey CLI will do that, on installation, if your PowerShell profile exists. If it doesn't, then it can't add it.
