To make sure the command is automatically executed for every rclone command, you can now just store this entire string as the value of environment variable `RCLONE_PASSWORD_COMMAND`. You can also supply it to rclone command-line argument --password-command with double quotes around it: `rclone lsd remote: --password-command "powershell -NoProfile -Command [Console]::OutputEncoding ..."`. If you want to set the environment variable from command prompt or a batch script remember to escape the `|'`characters into `^|`, like this:
```
SET RCLONE_PASSWORD_COMMAND=powershell -NoProfile -Command [Console]::OutputEncoding = [Text.Encoding]::UTF8; if (-not (Test-Path -LiteralPath 'C:\Path\To\Password.sec')) { Read-Host -Prompt 'Enter rclone configuration password' -AsSecureString ^| ConvertFrom-SecureString ^| Out-File -LiteralPath 'C:\Path\To\Password.sec' -NoNewline } New-Object -TypeName System.Net.NetworkCredential -ArgumentList '', (Get-Content -LiteralPath 'C:\Path\To\Password.sec' -Raw ^| ConvertTo-SecureString) ^| Select-Object -ExpandProperty Password
