I have .psl file i want to run that file on Ansible nodes ,So when i try to invoke the .psl file using adhoc command : **ansible win1 -m win\_command -a “powershell.exe -File C:\Sample\tomeescript.ps1” ,** It works fine  
When i try to do the same with win\_command module ,its failing

Excuse me, but the name of the script certainly doesn't belong into the chdir parameter.
