Run PowerShell command from command prompt (no ps1 script)

Here is the only answer that managed to work for my problem, got it figured out with the help of this webpage (nice reference).

powershell -command "& {&'some-command' someParam}"

Also, here is a neat way to do multiple commands:

powershell -command "& {&'some-command' someParam}"; "& {&'some-command' -SpecificArg someParam}"

For example, this is how I ran my 2 commands:

powershell -command "& {&'Import-Module' AppLocker}"; "& {&'Set-AppLockerPolicy' -XmlPolicy myXmlFilePath.xml}"
