Windows PowerShell 7.2.6

Windows PowerShell is a command-line shell and scripting tool developed by Microsoft for system administrators and power users. It was first introduced in 2006 and has been an integral part of Windows operating systems since then.

The PowerShell language is based on the .NET Framework and offers access to various Windows management frameworks such as COM, WMI, ADO.NET, and other interfaces. It enables users to automate repetitive tasks, manage system configurations, manage network resources, and execute complex scripts to perform a wide range of administrative tasks.

One of the key features of PowerShell is its ability to handle both structured and unstructured data. Users can read and write data from multiple sources such as files, databases, and web services, and output data to various file formats including CSV, XML, and JSON. This makes it easy for administrators to manage large amounts of data across multiple systems.

PowerShell also integrates with other Microsoft products such as SQL Server, SharePoint, Exchange, Azure, and many others. It has a vast library of built-in cmdlets (commands), modules, providers, and scripts that can be used to automate various tasks with ease.

Windows PowerShell is a powerful tool for managing Windows environments with a steep learning curve but offers immense benefits once mastered.
