If you have not used PnP PowerShell you should use it, it is much easier to do tasks in PnP PowerShell.

Example: If you want to add a Choice column in SharePoint list or library.

Just few lines of code will do this and you don’t need to be on SharePoint server to do this.

But you need to install SharePoint PnP PowerShell

$encpassword = convertto-securestring -String "<<password>>" -AsPlainText -Force
 $cred = new-object -typename System.Management.Automation.PSCredential -argumentlist "<<domain\username", $encpassword
